Bashas’ customers raise $186K for Salvation Army

Posted

Customers of Bashas’ and Food City stores raised $186,174 in July in support of The Salvation Army Emergency Disaster Services (EDS) as part of Bashas’ “Charity of the Month” program.

During July, customers were given the opportunity to donate to The Salvation Army EDS at store registers across Arizona.

Bashas’ is located at 21064 W. Main St., Buckeye.

“The Salvation Army would like to thank Bashas’ for providing this platform and express our heartfelt gratitude to its customers for their generosity in helping our neighbors in need,” Salvation Army Southwest Division commander Lt. Colonel Kelly Pontsler stated in a news release. “We are truly blessed to have Bashas’ as a community partner.”

The Salvation Army EDS has been on the front lines during the COVID-19 pandemic, serving vulnerable neighbors with vital food, household goods, and rent and utilities assistance, and also provides things like meals and supplies for evacuees displaced by wildfires; PPE, food and beverages for the first responders; and life-saving hydration to people living outdoors in the summer heat.
