Smithfield’s Chicken N Bar-B-Q has begun a “Freedom Week" program that allows customers to donate items to U.S. troops serving in Afghanistan. Customers who donate one or more items will receive a free Bar-B-Q sandwich, courtesy of Smithfield’s Chicken N Bar-B-Q. “Freedom Week” will run July 3rd through July 10th in participating stores.

“We received an outpour of support from the public when they heard about the care packages we are sending to a Navy unit stationed in Afghanistan,” said Richard Averitte, Marketing Director for Smithfield’s Chicken N Bar-B-Q. “We thought this would be a great way for them to get involved,” he added.

Items that may be donated include: magazines, coffee, candy, snacks, batteries, puzzles, games, and anything fitness related. All donations will be shipped to the company’s “adopted” unit deployed in Southern Afghanistan, US Navy EOD Mobile Unit Three. For information about the unit and list of participating stores, visit the company’s blog, www.scnbnc.com/blog.

Smithfield’s Chicken N Bar-B-Q has a 40-year history serving the finest fried chicken and Eastern-North-Carolina-style Bar-B-Q, made fresh daily from family recipes and served in a family-friendly atmosphere. Smithfield’s Chicken N Bar-B-Q has over 30 locations in North Carolina as well as an online store where Bar-B-Q can be shipped anywhere in the United States.
