Starting Wednesday, Wegmans Food Markets will kick off its companywide Check Out Hunger scan campaign to raise money for the company’s 48 Feeding America food bank partners. According to Feeding America, more than 47 million people in the United States face hunger, including 1 in 5 children. The annual Check Out Hunger campaign raises critical funds for local food banks who provide year-round assistance to food-insecure families.

From October 23 to November 30, customers can donate $2, $3, $5, or any amount at checkout, with 100 percent of the proceeds going to each store’s local food bank. In response to Hurricane Helene, Wegmans’ four North Carolina stores launched their campaign early on October 1 to raise money for local food banks assisting with disaster relief efforts. All donations made at Wegmans’ North Carolina stores will continue to go directly to the shared Feeding the Carolinas fund for local food banks.
