SpartanNash has launched its eighth annual fundraiser to support food pantries across the Midwest during the holiday season.
Through Nov. 3, SpartanNash’s campaign aims to raise $300,000 for hunger relief, with 100 percent of donations staying in the communities where they are collected in Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota and Wisconsin.
Customers can contribute by donating $0.50, $1, $5 or $10 when checking out at SpartanNash-operated locations, including Quick Stop convenience stores or online at shopfamilyfare.com.
“As a leading food solutions company, SpartanNash takes to heart our responsibility to help fight hunger,” said Adrienne Chance, SpartanNash’s SVP and chief communications officer. “This initiative, powered by the generosity of our shoppers and Associates, is all about delivering the ingredients for a better life to those who need it most, when they need it the most.”

In 2023, SpartanNash and shoppers raised more than $300,000 to help local food pantries. Since its inception, the annual effort has raised more than $2 million.
“Our partnership with SpartanNash is truly special. It’s about building a foundation for stronger communities,” said Tamara VanderArk-Potter, Kids’ Food Basket’s VP of philanthropy. “With their support, we can provide essential nutrition and create a path to a better future for families facing hardship.”
