Southeastern Grocers Inc., parent company and home of Fresco y Más, Harveys Supermarket and Winn-Dixie grocery stores, has announced a community donation program to benefit more than 420 public schools throughout the Southeast. The three-week program continues the grocers’ commitment to support creative, inclusive environments for students to grow and thrive in during the new school year.
Now through Aug. 30, Fresco y Más, Harveys Supermarket and Winn-Dixie customers are invited to support their local schools by simply rounding up their grocery bill to the nearest dollar at checkout or by purchasing a reusable Community Bag for $2.99.
Every cent raised at the register and $1 from each Community Bag will be donated directly to the store’s local school to support teachers, staff and students in preparation for the upcoming school year. This commitment to foster children’s education, development and wellness will provide support inside and outside the classroom, including job opportunities to shape and empower future leaders.
