In other company news, Buffalo, N.Y.-based Wilson Farms said that following a month-long campaign to "Check Out Hunger," the retailer has announced that it has raised a total of $17,775 to help the Food Banks of Western & Central New York.
"We are able to provide these much needed funds thanks to the generosity of our customers and the support of our Wilson Farms associates, both of which continually assist us in supporting charitable programs such as 'Check Out Hunger,'" said president and CEO of Wilson Farms, Paul Nanula.
This is the sixth consecutive year Wilson Farms has supported the "Check Out Hunger" campaign, during which time all 188 locations across New York State accepted $2, $3 and $5 donations from customers.
Wilson Farms has raised more than $165,000 for the food banks since first supporting "Check Out Hunger" in 2005.
All proceeds are donated directly to the Food Banks of Western & Central New York. A $2 donation will provide 11 meals to individuals (depending on the Food Bank); $3 provides 16.5 meals, and $5 provides 27.5 meals, according to the food banks.
Through the Check Out Hunger campaign, Wilson Farms not only raises funds for the local Food Banks, but also awareness of hunger in our communities, Nanula added.
Wilson Farms Neighborhood Food Stores, established in 1969, currently operates 188 convenience store and gas station locations across the state of New York. Over the years, Wilson Farms stores have evolved to fit the changing needs of customers, and today offer quality farm-fresh produce, convenient meal solutions, freshly made sandwiches, gourmet coffee and a wide selection of other beverages, and an intensive line of grocery, frozen and dairy products.
