On Tuesday, September 17 at 10:00 am., GIANT associates volunteered alongside staff of ProJeCt of Easton to celebrate a successful Bag Hunger Campaign and presented a check for $2,138 to the food pantry.  

The Bag Hunger Campaign ran from August 25 through September 7 across all GIANT and MARTIN’S stores with a grand total of $780,676 collected from all stores.  GIANT and MARTIN’S customers donate to their local food bank during checkout through the in-store campaign. Funds collected go to more 100 pantries across the markets served by GIANT and MARTIN’S. 

Throughout September, GIANT associates will volunteer and make donations at select food banks and pantries to celebrate the contributions.  The Bag Hunger Campaign is only one of many ways that the company helps end hunger in the communities it serves. Visit the GIANT or MARTIN’S websites to learn more about the Company’s hunger relief programs.
