the contemporary shopping lifestyle

With the struggles our economy is facing, more people than ever will go without food this holiday season.  Our Commerce with Conscience program donates 5% of Tastefully Driven’s profits to local charities in the Albany, NY area.  For 2008 we were proud to make our donation to the Regional Food Bank of Northeastern New York a few months early so that they would be able to use the funds to help families in our community this holiday season. This past Wednesday night our team attended the 19th Annual Auction to benefit the Regional Food Bank at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Albany.  In addition to the company donation, our team won several auctions to directly benefit the Food Bank.  Thank you to all of our customers who were able to make this donation possible.  The Food Bank estimates that for every dollar donated $10 - $12 of food is given to the hungry.

We look forward to working with the Food Bank and other local charities in 2009 and beyond to help improve our community.
