Which company has pledged to provide money and volunteers at the local food bank in Buffalo?
Wal-Mart and the Food Bank of Western New York joined Tuesday to announce a new partnership to feed the hungry across the state. Wal-Mart executives came bearing a $577,000 check to help address the problem. The Food Bank of Western New York will get about $65,000 of that amount, as well as any food collected from a drive Nov. 22-23 in 10 area Wal-Mart stores. The partnership between the retail giant and the Food Bank Association of New York State is called “Feeding New York: Rolling Back Hunger One Meal at a Time.” The initiative will provide funding, food and volunteers to the eight regional food banks in the state.
