Family Fare in the Community

Shared Purpose

Family Fare supports local nonprofits throughout the geography where Family Fare operates. The selection of 501-C 3 Organizations for Family Fare’s Shared Purpose Funding is a grass roots effort derived from our Service Collaboration and Support Center Administrative Representatives and our Independent-Entrepreneur Franchisees.

Each established Store Region and the Service Collaboration and Support Center may nominate a qualifying organization once per year. If you or your nonprofit 501-C 3 Organization would like to be considered for Family Fare’s Shared Purpose Initiative, you may direct inquiries at individual Family Fare Stores to the Franchisee at the store or contact a member of the Service, Collaboration and Support Center Administrative Team. The region representatives, whether Service, Collaboration and Support Center Administrative Team Members or Franchisees, in collaboration with one another select recipients each year for Family Fare’s Shared Purpose Initiative.

Family Fare participated in a volunteer initiative where Business Consultant Faye Smith baked homemade dog snacks, helping provide comforting treats for animals awaiting adoption. In addition to hands-on support, Family Fare contributed a $2,500 donation to CrisisDog NC helping fund medical care, food supplies, and ongoing rescue efforts for animals in need.
