Chatham Bands Together To Help Bag Hunger

CHATHAM, NJ - Donning aprons and bagging groceries allowed volunteers from the Chatham Borough governing body and Police Department to assist in ShopRite’s annual “Help Bag Hunger” event in September.

“Help Bag Hunger” is part of the ShopRite Partners year-round In Caring Program, community based initiative, which has donated more than $27 million to 1,700 charities that provide food assistance throughout the Northeast.
