ShopRite of Yardley unveiled a special-edition Cheerios box, March 19, featuring the winners of the annual ShopRite Partners In Caring Cheerios Contest, sponsored in partnership with General Mills.
It’s a tradition that recognizes ShopRite team members for supporting regional food banks and fighting hunger in the communities they serve. Associates from the ShopRite of Yardley and other ShopRite stores are featured on the cereal box, which is being unveiled at in-store ceremonies March through May. The Yardley ShopRite raised nearly $34,000 for area food banks this year.
ShopRite associates across hundreds of stores compete in the friendly competition each fall. They came together to collect donations at checkout, helping raise over $1.5 million for regional food banks in several states. The 52 top fundraising ShopRite stores select associates to be featured on special-edition Cheerios boxes, sold exclusively at ShopRite. Each winning store receives prize money ($5,000 for the top five stores and $2,500 for the remaining winning stores) to be donated to local food pantries chosen by the respective store teams.
