Shop Rite Family Fun Day


Shop Rite East Hartford hosted a Family Fun Day to benefit Foodshare. On a Saturday in early June, the staff of Shop Rite East Hartford transformed their main entrance into a carnival atmosphere. They set up carnival games for prizes, a cookie decorating station, face painting, and served delicious carnival foods like cotton candy, fried dough and popcorn.
 
The enthusiastic staff in their tie-dyed shirts took turns running the games and serving the foods. The event was a great way to connect with their customers, but also a way to give back to the community. All proceeds from the event were donated to Foodshare.
 
In addition to this event, Shop Rite East Hartford holds other Foodshare fundraisers during the year, joins us for the Walk Against Hunger, and even serves meals at a local program that benefits weekly from Shop Rite’s generous donations through Foodshare’s Retail Pick-up program. They work a little harder every day to make a big impact in their community.
 
Thank you, Shop Rite!
