Very cool to be a part of this. The people from the Roundy's Foundation were incredibly nice, everyone pitched in to help us load up the cars. Then, store manager at the Sussex Pick-N-Save, Jeff and assistant store manager, Rick, both drove over to the food pantry to help us unload the cars and fill the shelves. Thank you!!
