GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – Meijer is aiming to make the holiday season bright once again for children across the Midwest.
For the fifth consecutive year, the Grand Rapids, Mich.-based retailer is donating a portion of customer purchases made in the toy department – up to $400,000 – to children’s gift-giving programs across the Midwest.
Any toy – regardless of brand – purchased at Meijer now through Dec. 1 will help the retailer share the joy this holiday season.
“Meijer wants to help make the holidays a little brighter for hundreds of children, because we believe every child deserves to experience the sheer joy of unwrapping a toy,” said Dan Myers, Division Merchandise Manager of Toys for Meijer. “We are excited to partner with our generous customers once again on our Buy a Toy, Share the Joy program.”
Purchases made on hundreds of toys – including favorite national brands like Fisher-Price, Barbie, Lego and Nerf, and this season’s top toys – will count toward increasing the donation, up to $400,000, to children’s gift-giving programs within the retailer’s six-state footprint of Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky and Wisconsin. Meijer will select the programs to ensure that the donations remain in the communities Meijer serves.
