Wegman's staff give AWP's shelter a face lift.

In addition to serving up delicious global delights, fresh produce, and more, Wegman's Warrington store is making time to give back to their community. On the menu - a Day of Service!

In August 2011 employees from the Wegman's Warrington store participated in a Day of Service at A Woman's Place (AWP). The only domestic violence shelter in Bucks County for women and children who are victims of domestic violence, AWP's shelter is often in need of some TLC.

"Imagine if your house... with multiple families... all in crisis," mused Associate Director Ifeoma Aduba. "It can get chaotic and experience wear and tear. We count on the generosity of the community to help us give these families a safe and clean place to live. Corporate Days of Service, like the one Wegman's engaged in, are great examples of the wonderful partnership that AWP has with the business sector. We can't wait to have them back."

And back Wegman's will come. This May, several more Wegman's employees will gather again for another Day of Service.

Are you part of a group or business that is looking for a way to give back and volunteer? Consider a Day of Service at AWP. It's good for team spirit, good for your health, and good for AWP! Whether you have 2 hours or all day, AWP can arrange a Day of Service to fit your calendar.
