Tiered Donation Campaign Under Way at Hannaford
Dec 3, 2009 6:00 AM, By CAROL ANGRISANI
SCARBOROUGH, Maine — Hannaford Bros. is giving shoppers three ways to make a charitable donation this holiday season.
The top level of Hannaford Helps Fight Hunger lets shoppers buy a $10 box filled with food that Hannaford will donate to local food banks. In return, they get a coupon book filled with $50 in savings.
The coupons provide a free private-label product with the purchase of a compatible national brand. Most items are suitable for holiday baking recipes. For instance, one coupon provides a free 2-pound bag of Hannaford-brand sugar with the purchase of an 8-ounce bag of Fisher pecans.
Another way to donate is by giving a flat $5 donation that will be donated to a food bank. In return, donors get the $50 coupon book.
An even less expensive way to give is by participating in the “Buy 1, Give 1” campaign. By buying select Hannaford-brand items, Hannaford will donate one to a local food bank.
“It’s the simplicity of it that makes it such a strong promotion,” Hannaford spokesman Michael Norton told SN. “We’re providing three simple ways to donate.”
