Giant announces Feeding School Kids initiative

The Giant Company recently announced the return of its annual Feeding School Kids initiative. Customers at Giant, Martin's and Giant Heirloom Market stores are invited to round up their purchases to the nearest dollar, buy a reusable bag or convert their Choice points into a donation for their local public school districts' food programs. The initiative, now in its fourth year, will run for three months through Sunday, March 31, to help meet the needs of many students.

This year, Giant will donate $100,000 to launch the program. Through Feeding School Kids, public school districts have been able to support meal programs and address food insecurity from supplying backpacks with weekend food to clearing outstanding student lunch debt to building on-campus food pantries and establishing garden programs.

For example, in Pennsylvania, Norristown School District distributed 10,000 meal boxes in the summer containing five breakfasts and five lunches in each box and York Suburban School District restocked its pantry to double its service to 175 families.
