Representatives from the Giant Company recently presented a donation to the food services program at Palisades School District in the amount of $9,786.
Through the Feeding School Kids initiative, The Giant Company and their customers raised more than $3.3 million to address the issue of childhood hunger throughout local public school districts in the communities they serve. From Jan. 4 through Feb. 28, customers were invited to “round up” their purchase to the nearest dollar or convert their store points into a donation for public schools’ food programs. The Giant Company matched the first $1.5 million in donations by customers.
Receiving the donation was Superintendent Dr. Bridget O’Connell, Palisades School Board President Robert Musantry and Palisades Food Services Director Gerry Giarratana.
