The holiday season is about spreading joy, and we embodied that in our stores recently by surprising hundreds of customers and team members with thousands of dollars in shopping sprees during our 10th annual Very Merry Meijer event. Meijer leaders surprised one customer with a $1,000 shopping spree and two team members with $200 gift cards in each of our 267 stores across the Midwest. Read more: https://bit.ly/3GL80jk
We did it! Thanks to our customers this Thanksgiving season, we will be providing 4 million meals to those in need across the Midwest through our Meijer Simply Give program. Every customer who purchased any Meijer brand, Frederik's by Meijer, True Goodness by Meijer or Purple Cow food item last week, we contributed one meal to our Simply Give food pantry partners.* To learn more about the Meijer Simply Give program, visit https://lnkd.in/duNfFd5 *One meal equates to 25 cents. Meal calculation is based on the approximate average cost of a meal from select food pantry partners across the Meijer footprint. #meijercommunity

We announced our third annual Meijer Team Gives fall program, which empowered our team members to grant $3 million in surprise donations to nearly 500 nonprofits within their communities. Each store, distribution and supply chain facility, and Meijer Team Member Resource Group was given $10,000 to donate to one nonprofit, or $5,000 to donate to two nonprofits. Team members at each location worked together to identify the local nonprofits meaningful to them and the communities they serve. Learn more here: https://bit.ly/3QHfKIQ #meijercommunity

We are proud to partner with the Greater Lansing Food Bank Garden Project in keeping seed packets out of landfills and giving them new life for our communities.

When a new Meijer store broke ground in Westfield, Ind. in 2020, Student Impact of Westfield Executive Director Danyele Easterhaus was amazed to get a call inquiring about how the store could partner with her organization. Since then, those team members voted to give their Meijer Team Gives donation to Student Impact twice, once with a $10,000 check and again with a $5,000 check. Over the past few years, as the organization worked and fundraised toward an expanded facility for students, these donations came in handy. Read more: https://lnkd.in/gRtxTxGn
Our Escanaba and Marquette stores spoke loud and clear when they both unknowingly chose Upper Peninsula Honor Flight for their Meijer Team Gives spring donation, based on votes in their respective stores. U.P. Honor Flight is an organization honoring America’s veterans by transporting them to Washington, D.C. to visit and reflect at the memorials that stand in their honor at no cost to the veterans.
