- Harris Teeter launches donation card campaign to support United Way
Shoppers and Associates can Donate $1, $3 or $5 at Checkout
Matthews, NC, 2017-Aug-31 — /EPR Retail News/ — Today (Aug. 30, 2017), Harris Teeter launched a donation card campaign to support United Way, an organization creating long lasting change for those most in need through strategic community philanthropy.
Aug. 30, 2017 – Sept. 29, 2017, Harris Teeter customers will be invited to make a $1, $3 or $5 donation to United Way at checkout. In 2016, Harris Teeter raised more than $458,000 for local United Way chapters as part of this campaign.
“Harris Teeter has a long-standing relationship with the United Way, and we are proud to lend them our support again this year,” said Danna Robinson, communication manager for Harris Teeter. “We are so thankful for the participation of our valued associates and loyal shoppers in helping us to raise funds and awareness for our local communities.”
Focusing on education, health, financial stability and basic needs, United Way works to create an environment of opportunity where thousands of families in neighborhoods across our area can have a chance for a better life.
United Way’s network of partners works collaboratively to provide comprehensive and coordinated services to achieve the best possible result. Education programs support early childhood literacy, tutoring initiatives, mentoring, and family support initiatives that provide important life navigation for students and their families.
All funds collected at checkout will remain local, as donations are given to the United Way chapter in the community nearest to the Harris Teeter at which the money was donated.
