At Publix, we believe in giving back and making a difference. As a grocery retailer, helping feed our neighbors in need is at the core of our community efforts.
September is Hunger Action Month, which is when we support Feeding America® and its campaign to raise awareness and inspire action to help people facing hunger. In addition, we have several year-round initiatives to provide food for individuals in our communities.
Our founder, George Jenkins, spent his life sharing his time, talents and treasures in hopes of making a difference in the lives of others. When asked what he thought he would be worth if he hadn’t given away so much, he answered without hesitation, “Probably nothing.”
As we celebrate our 95th anniversary this month, his legacy lives on through the company and our associates. For us, giving back isn’t just the right thing to do; it’s part of the Publix culture.
