Good Deeds in the Making

The Good Deeds in the Making program introduces new dishes every week in the prepared foods department of every Hiller’s store. 100% of profits from sales of these dishes go to local charities chosen by the person for whom the dish is named.

“So many people are in need now, in these trying times,” says Jim Hiller, CEO and owner of the family grocery that has been a community anchor for nearly 70 years. “We can’t solve all the problems of our community – but together, we can certainly make a significant difference. This is how friends help each other – and reinvigorate our community.”

Through October 19, four dishes will help local causes. Try Tony Fayne’s Buffalo Chili and Samira Cholagh’s potato chop, kibbie and eggplant salad.

100% of profits from sales of Buffalo Chili will go to benefit the Agree Foundation at Temple Israel, giving birthday parties to children of battered and homeless mothers. 100% of profits from sales of potato chop, kibbie and eggplant salad will go to the Chaldean Foundation’s Adopt a Refugee Family Program, helping Iraqi refugees resettle safely in America.

Here’s a taste of the other generous individuals and their designated causes which are a part of this ongoing Hiller’s effort:

• Jill Syme’s stuffed cabbage and Lila Lazarus’ quinoa with roasted vegetables
Cause: Kids Kicking Cancer

• Rabbi Paul Yedwab’s petite quiche with spinach, mushroom and Jarlesburg and dietitian Gail Posner’s no-fat black bean salad
Causes: Forgotten Harvest and Ministrelli Women's Heart Center

• Lisa Diggs’ corn and smoked whitefish fritters and Danialle Karmanos’ tuna pasta
Causes: Gleaners Food Bank and DKWIO

• Janice Cherkasky’s diabetic apricot salad and Jeff Loeb’s pasta

• Robbie Timmons’ turkey meatloaf and Joy Cantor’s pasta with Thai peanut sauce and tofu

Hiller’s. The only place where good food helps people in need.
