Armstrong is celebrating the 13th annual Breaking Bread Day next Wednesday, March 8, 2023, at its local stores. Breaking Bread was first launched on March 8, 2010, as a program created to help feed the hungry in communities Armstrong provides service.
The community is invited to participate in this year’s Breaking Bread Day celebration. All Armstrong local stores will be collecting non-perishable food items to help fight food insecurity. To find an Armstrong store near you, visit armstrongonewire.com/localoffice.
The Grove City Armstrong store is located at 123 Industrial Dr. in Grove City and will be open on Wednesday, March 8th from 8 AM to 4:30 PM. Customers are encouraged to drop off non-perishable food donations or donations of cash. All donations will be routed to area feeding programs. Donors will receive some special treats and gifts as a thank you for their donation (while supplies last).
Hunger is a problem in all the communities that Armstrong serves, and the Breaking Bread initiative strives to help more than simply donating food. Armstrong is committed to fighting hunger through a four-pronged approach: collecting donations of food, volunteering time, donating money, and raising awareness. Breaking Bread Day celebrates the efforts of Armstrong’s customers, employees, and surrounding communities to eliminate food insecurity; as well as bringing awareness to the ongoing need in our communities.
Throughout 2022, Armstrong customers and employees donated 39,634 pounds of food, $16,311 in monetary donations, and 234 volunteer hours in the name of Breaking Bread. These resources were provided to over 200 community feeding programs to help supply food to families who are experiencing food insecurity.
Armstrong is proud to be active in the communities throughout the six states we serve, making Breaking Bread one of Armstrong’s most important community services. For a list of community food programs in your area, visit armstrongonewire.com/breakingbread.
