About
What is the program?
The Stop & Shop Bloomin’ 4 Good Program was created with a simple yet powerful mission: to give back to the local communities that make up the Stop & Shop footprint. Through this program, shoppers and supporters are provided with an easy way to make a difference every time they make a simple purchase.
How does it work?
With each purchase of a $10.99 bouquet, a $1 donation is redirected to a local hunger organization chosen by local store leadership. This donation helps support important hunger initiatives, with a different organization selected each month to benefit from the contributions made by shoppers.
What impact has the program had since inception?
Since its launch in February 2021, the Bloomin’ 4 Good Program has donated over $1,524,988 to local hunger alleviation efforts, provided more than 15,249,180 meals to those in need, and supported 2,602 organizations within the Stop & Shop community.
This low-effort, high-impact program is a win-win for both shoppers and the communities we call home. Together, we’re creating a more sustainable future, supporting local organizations, and making a lasting difference where it matters most.
