Stater Bros. Markets joins ABC7 for Feed SoCal Food Drive

Stater Bros. Markets is joining with ABC7 and Subaru Retailers for the 13th Annual Feed SoCal Food Drive to help Southern California food banks assist people who are facing hunger. Due to the end of CalFresh COVID-19 emergency allotments and the impact of inflation, the risk of food insecurity is greater than ever.

Feed SoCal is collecting donations now through June 30th that will be shared with food bank partners in Southern California. Stater Bros. Markets is providing several options for shoppers who wish to donate:

• Add a $5 donation card during checkout
• Loose change in coin canisters at the checkstands
• Text “FEEDSOCAL” to 41444
• Visit https://www.staterbros.com/feedsocal/

“This campaign is very near and dear to our hearts because we recognize that having a reliable source of food is a foundational human need,” said Stater Bros. Charities Chairman and President Nancy Negrette. “We are grateful to have partners like ABC7, Subaru Retailers and our local food banks who share our vision of helping those faced with food insecurity.”

All donations benefit Stater Bros. Charities, the nonprofit arm of Stater Bros. Markets. As stewards of these funds, Stater Bros. Charities will distribute 100% of the donations among all food bank partners during the summer months when food reserves are typically lower.

ABC7, Stater Bros., and the regional food bank will host a “Feed SoCal Friday” event on Friday, June 21st at Stater Bros. Market 2995 Iowa Ave. in Riverside to collect food and cash donations.
