Last Sunday, Market Street in Colleyville began collecting contributions to help the relief effort of victims of the massive earthquake in Haiti last week.
Shoppers at the grocery store may continue to donate $1 or more to the effort as they check out. United Supermarkets, the parent company of Market Street, will match the first $25,000, it’s CEO Dan Sanders said in a news release."There is nothing more devastating to an entire society than a catastrophic natural disaster of the magnitude of the one in Haiti, and it is our responsibility as a humanitarian nation to reach out to those victims," Sanders said. Funds raised through Jan. 31 will be distributed to the American Red Cross, Breedlove Dehydrated Foods and the Salvation Army, all of which are helping with relief efforts in Haiti.United Supermarkets is a Texas-based, family-owned grocery chain with stores in 30 markets across north and west Texas. —Staff Report
