Community Bag Program Overview
Making it easy for shoppers to give back to their local communities
Every time a shopper purchases a $2.50 Community Bag at your given Giant Food location, your nonprofit will receive a $1 donation, unless otherwise directed by the Giving Tag. You can help drive bag sales and donations with an ongoing campaign to:
- Promote by emailing supporters.
- Promote by posting to your social media.
- Promote by sending press releases to local media.
- Check in with the store to meet its leadership and check out the bag display and stock.
