Dollar Donations from Customers and Employees Add Up to Final Tally Milwaukee, February 4, 2010 - Dollars for Haiti add up at Pick 'n Save, Copps and Rainbow grocery stores. Thanks to customers and employees, Roundy's Supermarkets, Inc. is pleased to announce that it will be sending a check for $46,316 to the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund. The money is the result of a ten-day relief effort to help the victims in earthquake-ravaged Haiti. From January 21 - 31, all Pick 'n Save, Copps and Rainbow stores owned by Roundy's featured icons at each checkout depicting a map of Haiti and the phrase "Help Haiti." The icons were valued at $1. Customers choosing to donate only had to ask their cashier to swipe the icon to add a $1 donation to their grocery bill. Many customers donated more than $1. Additionally, employees at Roundy's headquarters based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, made contributions to the effort through a floral sale and individual checks. Roundy's "Help Haiti" relief effort was designed to provide customers and employees with a convenient way to donate to Haiti. About Roundy's Supermarkets, Inc.
