Montreal, Sept. 9, 2009 - The Montreal Alouettes and the team's Players' Wives Association are pleased to announce the annual Purolator Tackle Hunger food drive will be back in Montreal when the Als take on the BC Lions this Sept. 13 at Percival Molson Stadium.

Donors will also enter a draw for a pair of tickets to the 2009 Grey Cup to be held on Nov. 29 at Calgary's McMahon Stadium and will have a chance to win an autographed Anthony Calvillo jersey.
Purolator has helped deliver more than 2.5 million pounds of food to food banks across Canada since 2003. In Montreal alone, the Tackle Hunger program has collected over 34,720 pounds of food since 2006.
