About this event
<p>This year marks the 33rd year that Foodlink and Wegmans have partnered for the annual Check Out Hunger campaign. The local campaign begins Wednesday, Oct. 21, at 21 Rochester-area stores – and runs through Nov. 28 in conjunction with other Wegmans campaigns that support food banks up and down the East Coast.</p> <p>The point-of-sale campaign allows Wegmans shoppers to donate a few dollars – or simply round up their grocery bill – while checking out at their local store. 100% of the proceeds from local stores benefit Foodlink and its mission of ending hunger and building healthier communities.</p> <p>Last year, Rochester-area customers donated $820,515 — <span data-contrast="auto">This marked a $115,000 increase over last year’s total, and the first time in the event’s 32-year history that the campaign exceeded the $800,000 mark. </span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":0,"335559740":240}"> </span></p> <p>Thank you to all those who donated!
