Community and Charitable Giving


The Save Mart Companies believes that serving our communities goes beyond the four walls of our stores. We are truly committed to nourishing the communities we serve. That is why in 2000, we established The Save Mart Companies CARES Foundation.

To help our communities thrive, The CARES Foundation supports programs and organizations that provide resources, education, and access to healthful foods in the communities we serve. The CARES Foundation also supports educational experiences that lead to healthy communities.

The Foundation’s focus is building stronger communities through fresh foods, access to food, and programs that support youth and helping them thrive.
