COMMUNITY IMPACT

Giving Back to our Communities

Supporting the communities we serve is at the heart of what we do. Throughout the year, our stores proudly partner with and raise funds for a variety of nonprofit organizations that make a meaningful difference in the lives of local families and individuals, including:

San Luis Obispo Food Bank

Stockton Emergency Food Bank

Cancer Kids of San Joaquin County

City of Hope

MDA (Muscular Dystrophy Association)

Shriners Children's Northern California

Child Abuse Prevention Council of San Joaquin County

Through customer donations, fundraising campaigns, and community partnerships, we are honored to help these organizations further their missions and strengthen the communities we call home.
