Good Together hunger campaign brings Publix and its customers together to help neighbors in need

Sept. 17, 2024 - The Good Together hunger campaign is just one of the ways Publix is committed to helping its communities. With more than 47 million people in the U.S. facing hunger, according to Feeding America, we continue to look for ways to help. In 2021, we launched the Good Together hunger campaign (formerly known as Feeding More Together) to unite customers and associates.

Customer and associate donations are used to provide the nonperishable food items and fresh produce needed most by local food banks and pantries. Every campaign, Publix donates an additional $5 million in fresh produce to Feeding America partner food banks in our operating area.

Since March 2021, the Good Together hunger campaign has provided more than 20 million pounds of food to local food banks, pantries and Feeding America partner food banks, with Publix donating more than 100 million pounds of additional fresh produce.

"Publix remains committed to helping individuals and families facing hunger," said Publix Director of Community Relations Dwaine Stevens. "The Good Together hunger campaign is a special opportunity to bring together our customers and associates to help our neighbors in need. We're proud to do good together by providing much-needed nourishment to people in our communities."

Our next Good Together hunger campaign of 2024 will run Nov. 13 - 24. To learn more about the campaign, visit our corporate social responsibility website at csr.publix.com/good-together-hunger.
