I am so excited to share that Jenkintown Food Cupboard has been selected to be a part of the GIANT Bags 4 My Cause Program, which is designed to make it easy for customers to contribute to their local community while supporting the environment.

The Jenkintown Food Cupboard is made up of volunteers only and feeds about 100 families each week. This great organization that I volunteer with helps our neighbors within Montgomery County. Jenkintown Food Cupboard relies on generous donations from people like you!

For the month of March, each time a $2.50 reusable Bags 4 My Cause Bag is purchased at the GIANT located at 737 Huntingdon Pike, Huntingdon Valley PA, $1 will be donated to Jenkintown Food Cupboard, unless otherwise directed by the customer through the Giving Tag.

This is a great way to raise awareness, support the environment and fundraise for our cause. Let’s get started!

We can begin by spreading the news to our friends and family. Share this post with your friends, family, coworkers via email and social media! The more people who learn about the program and purchase the Bags 4 My Cause Bag during the month of March, the more money we will raise for Jenkintown Food Cupboard. To learn more about this program, please visit giant.bags4mycause.com.

I prefer to make a financial donation. How can I give one?

http://www.jenkintownfoodcupboard.net/donate-today has all the details on how to donate. My favorite way is to use PayPal and send money directly to JenkintownFoodCupboard@gmail.com. Financial donations allow Jenkintown Food Cupboard to use the money to buy what they are in desperate need of and for a fraction of the cost through Philabundance.

While I head to Giant in Huntingdon Valley, can I pick up any food items to donate?

Please! For the month of March we are very low on cereal and juice (no more than 64 oz per juice container). You can drop any food donations off at Jenkintown Food Cupboard on Thursday mornings or send me a message to set up a pick up time from your house! More information can be found here: http://www.jenkintownfoodcupboard.net/donate-today

Which Giant Food Store can I purchase the bag in?

Only the Huntingdon Valley location will support the Jenkintown Food Cupboard throughout the month of March. 737 Huntingdon Pike, Huntingdon Valley, PA

What is the cost of the Bags 4 My Cause Bag?

The cost is $2.50, with $1 of that purchase price going to support a benefiting non-profit.

Where can the bags be found in the store?

The bags are available at various registers and at the reusable bag rack. If you are having trouble finding the bag, ask the store manager where the GIANT Bags 4 My Cause Bag is located and they will be happy to show you!
