The Great American Milk Drive



Milk powers potential—if you have access to it. Support The Great American Milk Drive at Stop & Shop this June! 

Right now, 1 in 6 Americans struggle with hunger. Many rely on food banks, like Foodshare, for nutrition assistance, including more than 12 million families. Across the country—and in your community—these families are missing out on the important nutrients found in milk.

While milk is one of the top nutritious items requested by food bank clients, it’s rarely donated. In fact, on average, each food bank client receives only one gallon of milk per year while they need at least 68 gallons each year to meet the Dietary Guidelines.

That's why we’re partnering with The American Dairy Council, Feeding America and local retailers like Stop & Shop on The Great American Milk Drive, a national campaign to secure highly desired gallons of nutrient-rich milk for millions of hungry families!

HOW YOU CAN HELP: 

Stop & Shop is supporting the milk drive with a donation program throughout the month of June. You will have the chance to make a $4 donation at checkout by picking up a voucher in the dairy or cereal aisles. Simply present the voucher at checkout to add your $4 donation to your grocery bill!
