Wegmans customers helped raise nearly $770,000 during the company's annual "Fill the Bus" and "Fill the Backpack" campaigns. The record amount will go to support local food banks in the Rochester area.
The annual food drive is a key part of Wegmans' efforts to support the local community, and this year's record amount is a testament to the generosity of the company's customers. The money raised will be used to support local food banks, including the Foodlink food bank in Rochester.
"We are grateful for the support of our customers and employees, who have made this year's food drive a huge success," said a Wegmans spokesperson. The company's annual food drive has become a staple of the Rochester community, with many residents looking forward to the opportunity to give back each year.
