This program allows shoppers to make quick, easy donations at checkout or online through Fast Lane. Through this fundraiser, SpartanNash will support local families through food pantry donations to provide meals for those struggling with food insecurity this holiday season.

“With inflation and the already existing financial strain the holidays bring, many more families are needing extra help putting food on the table this year,” said SpartanNash Senior Vice President, Communications and SpartanNash Foundation Executive Director Adrienne Chance. “We are calling on SpartanNash Associates and store guests to help us raise critical funds for food pantries in advance of the holiday season.”

Store guests are invited to help their neighbors by donating $1, $5, $10 or rounding up to the nearest dollar at the register during checkout. Every dollar donated makes a significant impact and can provide up to 10 meals, according to Feeding America.

“Westminster Food Pantry has received more than $20,000 from our partnership with the Breton Village D&W store in Grand Rapids,” said Westminster Food Pantry Business Administrator Angie Kelley. “This food pantry fundraiser has allowed us to purchase at least 100,000 pounds of food from our local food bank over the past few years. This partnership is a vital part of our operation, and we value it greatly.”

Since starting this annual fundraiser in 2016, the SpartanNash Foundation has raised over $1.7 million to support local food pantries. This effort is part of SpartanNash’s larger commitment to philanthropy and social responsibility.
