CARY, N.C. -- The Pantry Inc.'s Kangaroo Express recently announced that 11 convenience stores in Hilton Head Island, Beaufort and Port Royal, S.C., areas now feature new store offerings and upgraded appearances as part of the "New at the Roo" program, including updated Bean Street Coffee offers and a broader assortment of fresh foods.
To celebrate its investment in the local Hilton Head community, Kangaroo Express stores throughout the area provided special offers, fun family activities and a total of $10,000 in donations to local charities, including local chapters of the Boys & Girls Club, HELP of Beaufort and Deep Well Project.
Customers also had the opportunity to support these local charities by making a donation in the form of Kangaroo Express gift cards, which will support each organization's respective programs and beneficiaries.
As part of the "New at the Roo" program, participating stores will feature upgraded Bean Street Coffee dispensers, designed to preserve the freshness of the coffee.
