Stamp Out Hunger 2017 Recap

April 27th – May 16th each Reasor’s location was setup with a drop off location at the main entrance, where customers had the opportunity to purchase a pre-made sack with the most needed items for $15 or drop off a non-perishable food donation.

With your help, 2,890 $15 sacks were sold.  Customers were also given an opportunity to donate any amount at the register with a donation card.  After all donations were counted, the total between cash donations and pre-made sacks came to $54,274!  Thank you for making this event a success once again this year.  All proceeds were donated to the Community Food Bank of Eastern Oklahoma.
