Through the month of November, the Stop & Shop Community Bag Program will support Watertown-based Operation American Soldier.

When you purchase a $2.50 reusable Community Bag at the Stop & Shop located at 171 Watertown St. in Watertown, $1 will be donated to Operation American Soldier, which sends care packages to American troops deployed overseas.

“Our goal is to sell 500 bags, equivalent to $500 raised. We are confident that with the help of our dedicated supporters, we can reach this goal,” said Wendy Rocca of Operation American Soldier. “We strongly encourage you to share this news with family and friends as well!”

The Community Bags are located on displays around the store and at the checkout. For more
