The generosity of shoppers at Foley’s Family Market was on full display on August 10 as Rotary Club volunteers collected food for the Mercer Street Friends Food Bank. A steady stream of shoppers bought items from our wish list, filling six carts and donating $238 in cash that will be used to purchase more food.
The quote of the day came from a woman who presented us with three full bags of food from Foley’s. As we thanked her, she smiled and said, "No one deserves to be hungry.”
A big thank you to the 13 Rotarians who helped with the Send Hunger Packing food drive, especially event organizer Paul Neu. And of course big props to Joe Foley, owner of Foley’s Family Market, and the shoppers who are helping to feed hungry families. |
