Local Kroger Stores Supporting Hurricane Sandy Victims

Kroger stores throughout metro Atlanta are encouraging customers and associates to donate to the American Red Cross, which is providing shelter, meals, emotional support and other necessities to those affected by the deadly aftermath of Hurricane Sandy.

Beginning this week, customers can round up their purchases to the nearest dollar at area Kroger stores, including those in Lilburn. Customers can also make donations to the American Red Cross at Kroger cash registers. The donation program began Oct. 31, 2012.

"Our hearts are with our friends and neighbors in New York, New Jersey, and across the East Coast who have been devastated by this unimaginable superstorm,” said Glynn Jenkins, director of communications and public relations for Kroger’s Atlanta Division, in a press release. "We ask that our customers come together as we ‘Round-Up’ support for Sandy’s countless victims. With their donations, we can help make a difference in the lives of so many."
