Members of our SoCal Division came together this weekend to build 60 bed frames for kids in need with Sleep in Heavenly Peace. This amazing organization provides beds for kids who don't have one, with a waiting list of more than 220 families still waiting for beds. Thank you to Gene Bendixen and the team at Albertsons #1348 in Santa Maria, CA for hosting the event and to all the volunteers that drove from far and wide to help out. And of course, thanks to Bobby Kennedy for bringing his hot dog cart to feed us! We also appreciate everyone who donated bedding for the kids. We collected over 60 sets of bedding, which will be delivered along with the bed frames and mattresses this week. Thank you to the 100 associates, family members and friends who volunteered at this event and worked together to make a difference and help children in need. #Community #AlbertsonsCompanies #Volunteering #Teamwork

Albertsons Companies Foundation is pleased to partner with Family, Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA) through our support of the Foundation for Impact on Literacy and Learning’s Explore.Act.Tell. Program, a national initiative that empowers students to address food insecurity in their communities. Through this program, students learn about the causes and effects of hunger, create and implement solutions, and share their stories of impact. One of the highlights of this partnership was the onsite service project at the FCCLA National Leadership Conference in Seattle, where student leaders from middle school through high school prepared snack bags for a local nonprofit, Feeding Feasible Feasts. These snack bags will provide nutritious food for children and families who face food insecurity every day. We are inspired by the passion and dedication of these young leaders, who are making a difference in their own and others' lives. Thank you for joining us in our mission to nourish our neighbors! #NourishingNeighbors #FCCLA #ExploreActTell
