Publix customers and associates donated more than $1.1 million during a 10-day point-of-sale campaign in support of global Red Cross relief efforts for the people affected by the crisis in Ukraine and neighboring countries.
Donations will be used to distribute food, deliver medicine, and medical supplies, assist with evacuations, and help provide shelter.
“Once again, our customers and associates have shown their commitment to helping others in times of great need,” said Publix’s Director of Community Relations Dwaine Stevens, in a statement. “Their generosity helps provide humanitarian aid to people affected by the crisis. We are grateful to work with our customers and associates to do good, together.”
