2024 Help, Hope, Change Honoree

Grocery Outlet

Grocery Outlet’s commitment to community extends well past their storefronts. Each independently owned and operated Grocery Outlet store is committed to giving back to their community and have partnered locally to provide families nutritious food through food drives, fundraisers, and food donations directly to food banks like MSC. In 2022 the Grocery Outlet on Pacific Highway hosted “Battle of the Badges”, a supermarket sweep competition to raise money for local food banks. Kent and Federal Way PD as well as Puget Sound Fire competed and MSC was the lucky recipient of the money raised. In 2023 when the Redondo Grocery Outlet had their grand opening they celebrated by making a donation to MSC. Grocery Outlets everywhere continue to offer incentives to their customers to participate in their food drives and fundraisers, bringing awareness to their shoppers about food insecurity and inviting them to be part of the solution.
