VERO BEACH — A local deli shop known for its homemade New York deli favorites has partnered with a statewide network to help feed those in need.
TooJay’s Gourmet Deli announced Wednesday that its Vero Beach deli and delis in other locations in Florida have partnered with Feeding Florida, a network of Feeding America food banks, to help provide a healthy, adequate and consistent food supply to the 3.3 million Floridians facing hunger each day.
The deli in Vero Beach is located at 555 21st Street.
“Our partnership with Feeding Florida highlights the need to fight hunger in the communities we serve every day,” said Chris Artinian, president and CEO of TooJay’s. “One of our core values is pride in our community and this certainly helps fulfill that mission. Together, we will make a positive impact helping to end hunger and food insecurity across the state.”
From Sept. 1 through Sept. 30, $1 of every Peach Tea or Strawberry Lemonade sold by Toojay’s will be donated to Feeding Florida. Every dollar donated provides 11 meals through the Feeding Florida network.
Toojay’s will donate up to $10,000.
Founded in 1981, TooJay’s has grown to 27 restaurants throughout Florida and currently has locations in Palm Beach, Broward and Polk counties, the Treasure and Space coasts, the west coast of Florida, the Orlando area and The Villages.
