Despite the challenges that our Safeway teammates faced in 2020, they never missed an opportunity to show up when their communities needed them most.
When our Safeway teammates learned that the pandemic had only heightened the need for food donations in communities across British Columbia, they truly stepped up to the challenge and championed our holiday checkstand campaign like never before. This past holiday season, our Safeway teammates put in tremendous effort to support local food banks through at-the-register cash donations and the sale of pre-packaged food hampers containing the most needed items.
Through determination, hard work, and an immeasurable commitment to their local communities, our British Columbia Safeway teammates managed to raise $111,760 in food hamper sales and $371,220 in cash donations for a total of more than $482,980! Such an absolutely incredible achievement!
A huge thank you goes out to every single teammate for continuing to show up everyday and put your local communities first throughout these challenging times. Your true Safeway spirit inspires us everyday!
