Roundy s Foundation TEN YEARS 10 Annual Report 2013 Roundy s Foundation was chartered in 2003 to strengthen the commitment Roundy s Supermarkets has to the communities served by its stores: Pick `n Save, Copps, Rainbow, Metro Market and Mariano s. After completing its first 10 years of giving back, Roundy s Foundation continues its mission on providing basic needs that ensure strong families and strong communities. Since its inception, the Foundation has donated more than $8.1 million to food pantries, women s shelters and domestic violence programs throughout Wisconsin, Minnesota and Illinois.
A Message from Bob Mariano The Roundy s Foundation is now entering its 11th year of operation. Eleven years ago, our vision was to create a foundation focused on giving back to the communities we serve. We are strong advocates of investing in our community s future, an investment that has and will continue to improve the quality of life for those less fortunate. We have put our advocacy into action by funding valuable organizations over the last 11 years that day-in and day-out provide critical services in the areas of hunger relief and family crisis situations. Without these organizations and their response to the needs of the community, a sense of despair would predominate. We remain steadfast in our commitment to these organizations and the energy they bring to improving the quality of life in the community. We have made a commitment of over $8 million in food and funding over the last 11 years to try and bring a brighter tomorrow to those in need. Although we contribute food and money to our communities, we believe our greatest contribution is hope. That s what drives our mission, that s what makes us advocates, that s what keeps us going.

Roundy s Foundation Hunger Relief $483,567 Hunger Relief is at the core of the Roundy s Foundation s mission. Our company s stores sustain communities by providing quality food at affordable prices, but an increasing number of families are struggling to put food on the table. The bulk of the Foundation s funds support the development of a long-term solution to hunger in the areas we serve. The food pantries and other non-profit organizations receiving donations from the Foundation are dedicated to building healthy communities through hunger relief and nutrition initiatives.

Community fairs Community Fairs are a great opportunity to gather Roundy s Foundation grant recipients to share information about their mission. These events have not only provided an occasion to share with our customers and employees about their partnership with Roundy s Foundation, but also act as a tool in which to encourage and recruit volunteers for the various non-profits. In 2013, community fairs were held in Wisconsin and Minnesota.
Community Involvement
Roundy s Foundation Golf Classic 2013 is the Year to Top The Ninth Annual Golf Classic was the top producing event thus far, and proved to be another extraordinary day at Geneva National Golf Club. The popular event was attended by over 430 golfers, and raised over $750,000! We had the pleasure of hosting Ahman Green in the morning, and always popular Robin Yount attended the event again as well. With the generous support of our vendor community and friends, the Foundation is able to continue their efforts to give food and funds to food pantries, meal programs, women and family violence shelters, and prevention education throughout Wisconsin, Minnesota and Illinois. However, the greatest highlight of the day was our honored guest, Donald Driver. It was a truly amazing day!
