Doorways says “Thank You” to Stop & Shop

Posted

The volunteers and clients of Doorways Food Pantry would like to express a hearty “Thank You” to the Stop & Shop store on Newman Avenue (Rte. 152) in north Seekonk. This Stop & Shop location has been an active supporter of Doorways Food Pantry for several years, making weekly donations of meat and bakery goods to the pantry. Over time, Stop & Shop has donated many thousands of pounds of frozen meat products, and many thousands of loaves of bread and baked goods. Without their generosity, it would be impossible to provide these foodstuffs to our clients.

But Stop & Shop’s support for Doorways extends beyond their weekly donations. Stop & Shop’s annual “Food for Friends” campaign, supported by their customers, provides a steady stream of food donations in support of their community. And for years the Newman Avenue Stop & Shop has allowed the collection of food donations at their store by providing drop-off boxes on behalf of Doorways.

On behalf of the Board of Directors, the volunteers, and especially the clients of Doorways, we want to say “Thank you” to store management and staff, and to the Stop & Shop Corporation, for being such good and caring neighbors, and for taking such a leading role in combatting the problem of food uncertainty in our community.
