This year, the Giant Company will donate over 13,000 turkeys and chickens to community partners and food banks in advance of Thanksgiving – a record number of donations delivering more than 110,000 servings of proteins to families in need.
The Giant Company team member volunteers will once again volunteer at food banks packing hunger relief boxes and organizing and restocking shelves in advance of the busy holiday season.
New this year, the Giant Company is inviting customers to make a difference with an option to donate $3, $5 or $10 at the register through Nov. 13. Donations will directly benefit six regional food banks – Blue Ridge Area Food Bank, Central Pennsylvania Food Bank, Helping Harvest Fresh Food Bank, Maryland Food Bank, Philabundance, and Second Harvest Food Bank. Customers can donate at any register or self-checkout and through Giant Direct.
From Nov. 11 through Nov. 24, customers can also donate free turkey certificates at the register in-store or donate 400 Choice points online, for which the Giant Company will make a $10 donation to a local food bank. In addition, customers can purchase reusable bags to benefit Feeding America.
Turkeys will be donated to the following local food banks and pantries: Mary’s Cupboard – Levittown, New Britain Baptist Food Larder – New Britain, and Project Hope of Easton – Easton.
