ANNOUNCING OUR 2ND ANNUAL THANKSGIVING DRIVE TO BENEFIT THE REGIONAL FOOD BANK OF NORTHEASTERN NEW YORK 

"We Want Trader Joe's in the Capital District" is conducting its 2nd annual Thanksgiving Initiative in support of our Regional Food Bank. For each donation made using the below form, the Regional Food Bank will send a letter to Trader Joe's indicating that the donation was made in its honor. 

This initiative has the potential to send thousands of individual contributions to the Regional Food Bank, and therefore thousands of letters to Trader Joe's! At the end of the drive, Members of the group will present the RFB with a large poster-sized check representing the grand-total of our effort! All donations will be graciously received and will be used to feed the hungry in the Capital Region during this holiday season. The RFB also gladly accepts food items (we're considering a group trip to the Hadley Trader Joe's to buy some food to donate). 

This is an opportunity to send a strong message to Trader Joe's that the Capital Region is a generous and compassionate community! So, please participate in our November Thanksgiving initiative by sending in the form below. 

Here's the form (please also share with friends and coworkers who might be interested!):

PLEASE SEND IN YOUR DONATION BY THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 20th 

Send to:

Tracey Martin

Regional Food Bank of Northeastern New York 965 Albany Shaker Road Latham, NY 12110

Contact Trader Joes and let them know we want them here!

HELP BRING TRADER JOE'S TO THE CAPITAL DISTRICT!

Do the word's "Trader Joe's" put a knowing smile on your face. If so, then you share my passion for great, interesting food items at reasonable prices. You may also share my experience of driving downstate or Boston or somewhere else far, far away, visiting friends, then packing up the car with Trader Joe's foods before returning to the Capital District.

Hopefully, you also share my desire to bring a Trader Joe's to the Capital district.

If you are not familiar with Trader Joe's, it's sort of hard to explain. It's not a supersized grocery story. It's a smaller store with a fun, casual atmosphere, store clerks that are really helpful, and a wide variety of food items which cater to many types of diets (health-conscious, Kosher, international, etc). What Trader Joe's is NOT is a 'frufru' gourmet store. Its just a great shopping experience for EVERYONE!

WHAT CAN I DO?

Glad you asked! Please help me try to bring a Trader Joe's to the Capital region by doing 2 things:

1. Please email me at broter2@verizon.net to let me know you're interested
   (I wont use your name without permission, but I'd like to know how many of you are interested)
2. Forward this page to your Capital District friends/relatives/coworkers who you feel might also be interested in getting a Trader Joe's here.

Thank you,

Bruce Roter

(By the way, I have no financial interest in this. I just like the food.
Trader Joe's is a privately held company and doesn't sell stock.)
