Donations at Greenwich Grocery Stores Help Keep Food Banks Stocked

Recent customer donations from Greenwich and Riverside ACME stores and Old Greenwich Kings Food Markets store to help eradicate childhood hunger by keeping food banks stocked and supporting meal distribution programs at schools totaled $2,700.

Greenwich Public Schools received 108 gift cards for $25 each through a partnership with Gift Card Bank and the generosity of ACME, Kings, and Safeway’s Nourishing Neighbors campaign.

On Friday Greenwich Public Schools Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Toni Jones presented those gift cards to Executive Director K. Brent Hill at Neighbor to Neighbor on Putnam Avenue.

From this generous program, Greenwich Schools and Neighbor to Neighbor have received more than $14,000 in gift cards since 2024.

Running the only food pantry in Greenwich, Neighbor to Neighbor’s mission is to strengthen the Greenwich community by providing access to nutritious food, clothing, and other essentials in an atmosphere of kindness and respect.
