PriceRite Steps Up

For Foodshare’s Food Donations Coordinator, Gaye Sgamboti, visiting donors to thank them is one of the highlights of the job. It’s an opportunity to gather the store staff who are responsible for processing donations and tell them what we have accomplished together. This week she visited all four PriceRite stores in our service area to present them with certificates and giant thank you signs. All four locations: Wethersfield, Windsor, West Hartford and New Britain, donate food at least three times per week and raise money at the registers for Foodshare through their Check Out Hunger program. As a group, these stores donated 147,623 meals worth of food in 2014 to hungry people in their communities. Their dedication is impressive and much appreciated. PriceRite stores are wonderful partners in the fight to end hunger.
