Paisley and his wife, Kimberly Williams-Paisley, partnered with Belmont University to launch the volunteer-run, supermarket-style food bank this month, according to People magazine.

"In doing their own shopping, our guests not only have a sense of dignity, but also a higher satisfaction with the food they are able to choose," The Store's website says.
