Shopko makes food, toy donations

GREEN BAY, Wis. — Shopko customers donated hundreds of pounds of food for Feeding America and thousands of toys for the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation.

According to Shopko, all food items were distributed to community food pantries prior to Thanksgiving, while toys were donated in time for holiday celebrations. In addition to the food items collected, the Shopko Foundation donated $100,000 to Feeding America to support its network of food banks in Shopko communities across the country.

“We are continually amazed at what those in our communities do for those in need,” said Michelle Hansen, manager of the Shopko Foundation. “Thanks to our customers’ generosity, we hope we are able to make the holidays more enjoyable for local residents in need.”
