During Hunger Action Month — a nationwide initiative by Feeding America held each September — we supported the communities we serve.

Publix Serves Week

Our associates came together to support their communities during our 2nd Publix Serves Week of the year. Throughout the week, over 8,000 associates volunteered at almost 150 organizations to feed our neighbors in need.

Publix Charities donation

Publix Charities donated $15 million to more than 400 local food banks and other nonprofit organizations, including 40 Feeding America partner food banks.

Hunger-related efforts throughout the year

We help our communities year-round with food donations and register campaigns.

Through the Good Together food donation program, we donate food that is no longer salable but safe for consumption to Feeding America partner food banks and their partner agencies. Last year, we expanded the program to include more than 4,000 additional products for donation and have now donated nearly 1.1 billion pounds of food since the program began in 2009.

A separate produce donation program, which started in 2020, has contributed over 150 million pounds of fresh produce to food banks.

Twice a year, the Good Together hunger campaign invites customers and associates to help us provide the fresh produce and nonperishable food items needed most by local food banks by donating any amount at the register. The next campaign will run in stores from Nov. 12 to 23.

We’re proud to do good, together.
