Managers from the Buffalo Wild Wings locations in Austintown, Boardman and Niles recently gave good news to 19 families throughout the Mahoning Valley that were recipients of a shopping spree at local Target stores.

This was the fourth year the “Hope for the Holidays” fundraiser took place, in which Buffalo Wild Wings partnered with Target and Save-A-Lot, and raised approximately $7,000 during football season.

Buffalo Wild Wings team members sold raffle tickets for pro-football jerseys and other prizes to guests to raise the money. Community partners were Greg Greenwood and Chris Davis of Greenwood Chevrolet; Austintown trustee Jim Davis; Mahoning County commissioner Dave Ditzler; Boardman School Board member Vicki Davis; Boardman Police Department, Joe O’Grady and Evan Beil; Boardman Fire Department, Bob Patrick and Anthony Yanulaitis; Mark Bodo; Bob Gavelier; and Jose Rodriquez.
