The Stewart’s Shops Holiday Match Program is at $1.4 million, and there’s a few collections days left.
As of Sunday, Dec. 20, donations collected a total $724,227 and with Stewart's match, that’s over $1,448,000.
The company operates stores in Massena, Canton, Potsdam, Ogdensburg, Winthrop and many other towns.
Customers are shopping at Stewart’s for a quick in and out; they choose to shop at Stewart’s because they feel safer versus the longer trips to big supermarkets. And even in these difficult times, many customers are donating their spare change to the Holiday Match Program to help nonprofits in their communities.
The Stewart’s Holiday Match Program has no administrative fees and donates 100% of donations received to charities in their market areas. The company even matches each donation dollar for dollar and has been doing so for the past 34 years, raising over $30 million for local charities.
Holiday Match funds are collected from Thanksgiving to Christmas Day in each of the 339 shops. Local childrens’ organizations are encouraged to apply for funding online at stewartsshops.com.
The deadline for submission is January 31, 2021. All groups applying must be locally based, benefit children under 18, and be a qualified, charitable 501c3 organization. A listing of all the local organizations that received funds last season is available online.
