On Wednesday Greenwich Public Schools received 335 $25 gift cards from ACME Markets & Kings Food Markets Foundation’s Nourishing Neighbors Program and GENYouth, a school based national nonprofit. The donation was made possible by recent customer donations from Greenwich and Riverside ACME stores and Old Greenwich Kings store to help eradicate childhood hunger by keeping food banks stocked and supporting meal distribution programs.
The donations totaled $8,375.
