Good Works Beyond Groceries
Community. It’s a collection of people with shared goals. A collection of families, values, homes. And home is where charity begins.
At BI-LO, your hometown is ours too and it’s important to us to give something back. That’s why we organize or sponsor dozens of charity events each year through BI-LO Charities. These efforts have rasied more than $48 million dollars over the last 26 years to support non-profit organizations within the communities we serve.
If it matters to you, then it matters to us. Like holding Walter’s Truckload Produce Sale® to benefit Habitat for Humanity® and the United Way®. Like raising over $4.3 million at the 2009 BI-LO Charity Classic®. We anually sponsor the Sippin' Safari, a wine-tasting fundraiser for the Greenville Zoo, and the BI-LO Charities Hunger Relief Drive.
And that’s just for starters. We’ve been recognized with awards for our efforts to promote literacy. We’re the presenting sponsor for the Susan G. Komen Race® for the Cure, and we’ve done so for the last 13 years. In 2007, we gave $2.5 million to the Children’s Cancer Wing of the Greenville Hospital System, their largest gift received to date.
There’s more, but lists aren’t important. What is important is that we give. Not because it looks good, but because it is good.
