Angels’ Care Closet, Inc. partners with Price Rite Marketplace and Feed the Children to Supply Community with Much-Needed Essentials.

On Wednesday August 12, Angels’ Care Closet, Inc. partnered with Price Rite Marketplace and international nonprofit Feed the Children to distribute over 30,000 pounds of food, toiletries, backpacks full of school supplies, and Disney Children's books at a drive through event at the Seekonk Speedway.
