Wondering if groups still collect Thriftway receipts to get a percent-back donation. Can’t find any current information. I’ve been saving receipts for a little while.
Yes they do, Jerald….. I have just popped by the Food Bank to drop them off and have also seen a collection basket in the lobby of the Fauntleroy Y recently.
Gatewood Elementary collects them too. There is a box just outside the office. Anybody can drop them off. Thriftway is great and we appreciate them supporting local schools and the food bank.
Until this blog I only new about the food bank part.
They get 1% of every receipt total from Thriftway to use for the food bank. We have a small collection box in our lobby which I turn in every month or two.
As a side issue, if Metro procedes with plan to cut the 128 bus through High Point our collection will drop.
