Community Giving
Whole Foods Market is a company with a conscience. We believe passionately in supporting the communities we serve. We believe companies, like individuals, must assume their share of responsibility as tenants of Planet Earth. We are extremely proud of our community involvement and the relationships that we continue to make each month! We strive to make a difference.
Our Community Support Days are another meaningful way we give back to our community. On designated days throughout the year a total of 5% of the day’s net sales are donated to local non-profit organizations. Customers help support our selected organizations just by shopping on these Community Support Days. If your organization would like to apply for one of our Community Support Days, please download our Community Support Day Application.
- We love to participate in local events at schools, day camps, community centers, organization meetings or work places. We’ll provide FREE samples, information, recipes and at least one smiling face.
