Mariano’s customers and staff, along with the Lombard Police Department, helped fill the shelves of the St. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry at Christ the King Church. Last week, customers at the Lombard Mariano’s were invited to donate $1, $5 or $10 for pre-stuffed bags of groceries in the “Stuff the Squad” event. On Saturday morning, Lombard police personnel, Mariano’s staff members and pantry volunteers (pictured) “stuffed” police vehicles with bags and boxes of donated food destined for the church pantry. Seven area Mariano’s stores participated in the annual event.
