The Lions are in the holiday spirit, by giving back to the community ahead of Christmas. As a part of the 2021 Season of Sharing initiative, the Detroit Lions and Meijer have partnered again this year to provide a fun holiday shopping event for youth from Boys and Girls Clubs of Southeastern Michigan. Each child received a $200 Meijer gift card to spend in the store with help from current Detroit Lions players, Roary and Detroit Lions Cheerleaders.
