El Rio Grande Giveback Impact in Review

El Rio Grande has been supporting Children's Health for nearly a decade and is an excited member of the Red Balloon League. 

"The most important thing we have learned in recent years is that nothing is stronger or more beautiful than humanity. No one is in need more than sick children and their families, and we are proud to partner with Children's Health each year," said Hamdy Shalabi, CEO, El Rio Grande Latin Markets.  

For us, the people who shop in our supermarkets are not customers—they are our neighbors, and we want to support them."
