Serve & Connect hosts first-ever North Carolina packing event with Greg's Groceries

On July 2, we hosted our very first Greg's Groceries packing event in North Carolina! Working alongside the Roxboro Police Department, Caswell County Sheriff's Office, Roxboro Fire Department, Person County Sheriff's Office, Walmart, and the North Carolina Highway Patrol, we managed to pack 300 boxes of groceries to be given to our community members in need! Every single one of these boxes was hand-packed with love by these law enforcement officers and Roxboro's Walmart team. We couldn't be more grateful for their help with this monumental packing event, and for expanding Greg's Groceries' service to the entire Carolinas! Read below for an impact story from Roxboro Police Department Chief, David Hess.

“This event has created lasting positive change by supporting our Roxboro community during its most vulnerable times and embodying true service above self,” said Roxboro Police Department’s Chief of Police, David Hess. “We are deeply grateful to Walmart for their unwavering support and to the Serve & Connect team for trusting Roxboro as their first out-of-state partner."
