Grizzard, Business Supervisor for the County Attorney's Office, attended the kick-off luncheon on March 26, where Attorney General Bill Mims gave the keynote address.On April 10, Mrs. Grizzard delivered 2,168 pounds of food to the Central Virginia Foodbank.The 72 participating law firms and agencies in Central Virginia exceeded last year's contributions by over 28 percent, raising 836,221 pounds and contributing over 50 percent of the 1,652,732 pounds collected across the Commonwealth.
