"Feeding Our Families" Food Drive
Every year, Feeding Westchester, NBC, Telemundo, and Stop & Shop host the "Feeding Our Families" food drive, a full-day event to benefit local food pantries.​​

"Holiday Dinner" Promotions
ShopRite of Croton sponsors a semiannual "Holiday Dinner" promotion. Customers accumulate points towards an Easter ham or Thanksgiving turkey (or an alternative food item, if desired.)
​
When you accumulate enough points for a ham or turkey, write "Croton-Cortland Food Pantry" as the beneficiary on your award receipt and drop it off at the ShopRite Customer Service desk.
The Pantry will pick up the holiday dinners and distribute them to our clients.
