Giant, customers raise money for initiative

Through its Healing Our Planet initiative, the Giant Company announced on June 27 that it raised $403,360 in partnership with its customers to support Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful and Planet Bee Foundation. During the month of May, customers at Giant, Martin's and Giant Heirloom Market stores were invited to round up their grocery purchases to the nearest dollar to support each organization.

Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful, in partnership with the Giant Company, announced it will award grants to local community organizations for tree plantings across Pennsylvania, and funds will support Pick Up Pennsylvania and local cleanup, recycling and greening events.

Planet Bee Foundation drives awareness for pollinators and the importance of bees as a pathway to STEM, conservation and innovations in agriculture. Funding raised by the Giant Company will support local beekeepers, research programs and school and community programs.

Giant's Healing Our Planet campaign has raised more than $6 million over the past four years. For more information on the Healing Our Planet initiative, visit http://www.giantfoodstores.com/pages/our-purpose.
