In-Store Fundraiser Benefits Military and Disaster Relief Nonprofit Organizations
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., May 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Food solutions company SpartanNash (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: SPTN) is rallying support for military and disaster relief heroes through its annual SpartanNash Foundation in-store fundraiser, running today to June 2. Reflecting the Company’s ongoing dedication to honoring military personnel and supporting disaster relief efforts, this year’s fundraiser will benefit Honor and Remember, Operation Homefront and Convoy of Hope.
“SpartanNash is deeply committed to supporting our military heroes, veterans, their families, and those affected by disasters,” said SpartanNash Senior Vice President of Communications and SpartanNash Foundation Executive Director Adrienne Chance. “This fundraiser embodies the spirit of Memorial Day, allowing us to give back to those who have given so much. Our partners, Honor and Remember, Operation Homefront and Convoy of Hope, provide vital services, and we are honored to support their missions.”
Since 2015, the SpartanNash Foundation, with the help of its communities, has contributed more than $2.3 million to patriotic and humanitarian causes. The funds raised in this year’s campaign will be evenly distributed among the three nonprofit organizations and will aid in disaster response, honoring fallen service members and providing essential financial and emotional support to military families.
“The impact that SpartanNash and the SpartanNash Foundation have made for military families, during the seven years we have worked together, is truly inspiring,” said Operation Homefront President and COO Brig. Gen. (Ret.) Robert D Thomas. “Thanks to the commitment of SpartanNash, together, we are helping to build strong military families who make their communities stronger, and these strong communities, in turn, make America stronger.”
Store guests can donate at participating SpartanNash-operated retail stores including Family Fare, Martin’s Super Markets, D&W Fresh Market, Forest Hills Foods and affiliated fuel centers. Between today and June 2, guests can join the cause by donating $1, $5, $10 or round up their total to the nearest dollar to support the Company’s three partners at any checkout.
