2020 was a year in which many communities and households throughout California and Northern Nevada faced unprecedented challenges of food insecurity intensified by the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to economic uncertainty, food insecurity may continue to increase; therefore, The Save Mart Companies has renewed its annual commitment to helping local neighborhoods and families in 2021.
This past year, the company donated in excess of 235,000 pounds of healthy, shelf-stable items, which resulted in providing more than 196,000 meals. Additionally, through the companies’ “Fresh Rescue” program, another 5.3 million pounds of produce and other perishable food items were donated to local food banks in a companywide effort to mitigate the impact of food insecurity.
