“Since 1923, The GIANT Company has been committed to helping its communities eliminate hunger year-round, but it’s especially important this time of the year to ensure that everyone can enjoy a warm holiday meal with their loved ones,” said John Ruane, president, The GIANT Company. “This year’s donations will deliver more than 125,000 servings of protein to families while creating moments to connect around the table.”

Additionally, The GIANT Company will also involve their team members in volunteering at the food bank. Their employees will be actively engaged in activities such as packing hunger relief boxes and organizing and restocking shelves to prepare for the busy holiday season.

David Delozier, Chief Development Officer at Helping Harvest, expressed his gratitude for The GIANT Company’s continuous support in feeding the hungry in Berks and Schuylkill counties. “We are extremely grateful for corporate partners like The GIANT Company for all they do in support of our work to feed the hungry in Berks and Schuylkill counties. Together with their generous gifts and volunteer support we are able to make a difference for thousands of children, families, and seniors in our region” he said.
