Food City is donating a retired company vehicle to the Floyd County Shrine Club located in Allen, Kentucky.  The 2013 Ford Escape SE all-wheel drive vehicle was recently retired from Food City’s corporate transportation fleet.  

The Floyd County Shrine Club plans to use the vehicle to transport area children to and from Shriner’s Hospitals for Children in Lexington, KY, Cincinnati, OH and St. Louis, MO for treatment.  There are over three hundred Shriner’s Hospital patients in Floyd County alone.  The Shrine Club transports the children and their family members at no cost to them.  

The vehicle will serve as a replacement for the Shrine Clubs current SUV which is in desperate need of replacement.
