Parker’s Kitchen and Union Mission, a nonprofit organization dedicated to caring for the homeless community and offering emergency, transitional and permanent housing to those in need, will host a joint media announcement on Wednesday, July 23, unveiling a gift to fund construction for Union Mission’s new 8,200-square-foot Resource Center in Savannah, Georgia.

“The new Resource Center will serve as the next step to bolster Union Mission’s successful Day Center at Grace House with services including case management, mental health counseling, workforce development, engagement and other wrap-around services that help individuals experiencing homelessness address barriers to employment and housing,” Parker’s Kitchen said in a press release sent to NACS.

The event will also include preview tours of Union Mission’s new Resource Center as well as offer new information about the project’s construction timeline, including expected start and completion dates.

Meanwhile, QuickChek Corporation recently served a sub lunch at a local Boys & Girls Club in Newark, New Jersey, and donated $10,000 to the organization.

“From handmade Subwiches to a donation that helps fuel the future, we're continuing our commitment to youth empowerment and fighting food insecurity—one meal and one moment at a time. Big thanks to our team members who showed up with heart and hustle. This is what community looks like,” the retailer said in a LinkedIn post.

Chestnut Market recently took to the water for its Annual Charity Fishing Tournament. “What an incredible day on the Long Island Sound for our Annual Charity Fishing Tournament XIII, benefitting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Thanks to our amazing supplier partners, we raised almost $80,000. Their generosity and support made this our best event yet! Here’s to making a difference, together,” the retailer posted on LinkedIn.
