  Check-Out HungerWhen: October 1, 2008 - January 9, 2009  Help feed hungry New Yorkers through your local supermarket. Through January, supermarkets in the five boroughs are partnering with the Food Bank For New York City for Check-Out Hunger, an annual supermarket-based fundraising effort that enables shoppers to make a difference in their community.
Every $5 donation through Check-Out Hunger helps the Food Bank provide enough food for 25 meals to New Yorkers in need.
Here's How it Works: More than 100 stores from leading supermarket chains and specialty markets including Fairway, The Food Emporium, Foodtown, King Kullen, Pathmark, ShopRite and Waldbaum's have joined the 2008 Check-Out Hunger effort, providing shoppers an easy, convenient way to help alleviate hunger.
