Associated Food Stores ‘Stuff A Truck’ For Hurricane Relief

AGBR Stuff A Truck

In an effort to support its neighbors in Texas and southwest Louisiana who have been impacted by Hurricane Harvey, area shoppers can donate at the registers of their local Associated Food Store, supplied by Associated Grocers (AG) of Baton Rouge.

Shoppers can visit mylocalafs.com to see if a store in their area is participating in the “Stuff A Truck! Fill A Need!” effort. Money can be donated at the register in increments of $5 or $10, and will go towards food and supplies for those affected by the storm.

Through AG’s partnerships with Second Harvest of South Louisiana and Feeding Texas, the products and supplies will be distributed to those that need it the most, the company says.

“Associated Food Stores comprises independent retailers that come together, under one recognizable banner, because they are focused on delivering the same core values to their customers,” AG says. “Each location may vary in size and demographics, but they all seek to standardize what it means to Live Local. Shop Local. Rooted in their respective communities, these stores offer great quality and variety, amazing fresh selections, and local neighborhood service.”
