Smith's Food & Drug "Gift Of Giving" Program

Benefits Food Bank and Its Clients

Smith’s has an easy way you can donate non-perishable food this holiday season, and you don’t have to do the shopping.  The Smith’s Gift of Giving programs allows shoppers to purchase a $7 bag of food or a $10 frozen turkey or ham without the shopping. 

Simply look for the yellow Smith’s Gift of Giving Donation Coupon at registers and have your checker add it to your bill.  The bag includes 11 of the most needed items at our food bank and includes 4 boxes of macaroni and cheese, 2 cans of red beans, 1 can mixed vegetables, 2 cans of tuna, 1 jar of peanut butter, and 1 can of peaches.

What is unique about the program is you don’t have to obtain the items yourself.  Simply, give the donation coupon at the register and Smith’s tracks how much food comes back to Roadrunner Food Bank.  Smith’s will deliver it to the Food Bank by the case load. The products are offered at Smith’s cost to stretch customers dollars and help Roadrunner Food Bank at the same time.

The program runs through December 27, 2008.
