Team members from ShopRite Supermarkets, Inc. (SRS) presented a check for $150,000 to representatives from Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital, a member of the Westchester Medical Center Health Network, and the children’s hospital for the Hudson Valley and Fairfield County.

ShopRite stores throughout Orange, Dutchess, Putnam, Sullivan, Ulster and Westchester Counties - including those in Warwick, Chester and Monroe - collected donations at checkout and hosted in-store activities and events during the month of November to raise the funds. Shopper advocates from four of ShopRite’s five top-performing stores that participated in the fundraiser – ShopRite of Vails Gate, Middletown, New Rochelle, Croton and Montague – were on-hand to present the donation, which will help support the hospital’s efforts to provide lifesaving and life-changing care to thousands of local children each year, including those in need of open heart surgery, brain surgery, cancer treatment, trauma and burn care, organ transplants and more.
