Our communities continue navigating financial challenges. For many households who already earn very low wages, facing loss of work hours in the winter adds an additional challenge. Expenses like rent, costs of groceries, gas, take up a big percentage of their earnings. We have launched our Winter Gift Card Program, which provides a household with a $100 Safeway Gift Card per family member.
With your financial support this winter, we will help alleviate some of challenges that low-income families and individuals are facing to give them the dignity they deserve to purchase the food they need.
You can help be the bridge to independence to farmworkers, seniors, and low-income families with grocery gift cards this winter by donating online or with Safeway gift cards (in denominations of $50 or $100) by December 2, 2025.
