Our founder, George Jenkins, believed that for any organization to be truly successful, it must give back. He set the example for all Publix associates by being involved in the community. He once said, “We have to prove we mean what we say, daily, to both our customers and employees.” Today, Publix associates carry on our founder’s legacy of giving back. One example is through our charitable efforts. We help our neighbors by offering hope and carrying out our founder’s wish to be there for our communities. Investing our time, money and talent is part of who we are ― a company that believes giving back to our communities is more than a responsibility; it’s a privilege.
