Community
Super Pantry has always been actively involved in each community that it serves. Please read below to check out a few of the things that we have done to improve the communities around us.
Charity
Super Pantry has become one of the leading contributors in the local Coaches Vs. Cancer fund drive.
Super Pantry has become one of the leading contributors in the local Coaches Vs. Cancer fund drive. Coaches Vs. Cancer has raised more than $40 million for the American Cancer Society since 1993. In 2008, Super Pantry raised $102,600. We were challenged in 2009 to raise $110,000. Scott Burnsmeier of the American Cancer Society agreed to shave his head if we raised $110,000. Not wanting Scott to be lonely, our CEO and President, Jon Stewart, volunteered to join him in the challenge. Our campaign ended on February 28, 2009, raising a whopping $120,000! On March 10, Jon presented Coach Weber with a check for $120,000, then the head shaving began!
So, in 2010 we were challenged to raise $130,000. With the help of our amazing store employees, as well as our very supportive customers, we were able to raise a total of $171,582, beating last year's total by over $50,000! Congratulations to all the stores and their customers for their hard work and effort in creating awareness for this great program! Since participating in the program, Super Pantry has donated nearly $695,000 to the American Cancer Society. Visit the Coaches Vs. Cancer website to learn more.
ExxonMobil Educational Alliance Grants
Each year, ExxonMobil allows Super Pantry the opportunity to obtain a $750 grant for a local school. This year, Super Pantry has obtained grants for 29 schools in Illinois and Indiana.
The grants are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Applications are mailed to schools in February or March and will be accepted until May 1st or until all of the funds have been allocated, whichever comes first. Funded schools receive the check in the fall.
