Introduction and History
Hannaford has long recognized that we as a company, as well as our associates, can play an important role in enhancing the quality of life in the communities where we live and do business. This philosophy has guided our charitable giving for many years. The Hannaford Charitable Foundation was established in 1994 as part of a charitable giving program to provide financial support to non-profit organizations dedicated to improving the communities in which Hannaford operates.

In 2006, the Foundation contributed over $1.4 million to 135 organizations across our five state marketing area.

Mission and Focus
The Hannaford Charitable Foundation provides financial support for programs and organizations with a current 501(c)(3) tax exempt status dedicated to improving the communities in the five-state area where we operate stores. Preference for funding is given to organizations or programs that involve Hannaford associates, are located in Hannaford's marketing territory and have the potential of providing ongoing services for a large segment of our customer base.
