Albertsons donates 2,000 turkey meals from its 'Santa Bucks' campaign

Shoppers can donate at all Albertsons stores across Idaho.

Albertsons "Santa Bucks" campaign has made a significant impact on the Treasure Valley yet again.

The company donated over 2,000 turkey meals to the Idaho Foodbank on Thursday, and it's all thanks to the community's generosity.

Throughout the month of December, shoppers at Albertsons grocery stores all over the state have the opportunity to participate in the campaign and add to their total purchase at checkout with a donation of $1, $5, or $10.

Albertsons says although there has been a large donation already, the need is still there and there is still time to help.

"We've been running this campaign since Thanksgiving and the campaign is not over yet actually, we're still in need. There's more families out there that are still in need of meals this holiday season,” said Albertsons spokeswoman Kathy Holland. “The campaign runs through Christmas Eve, so while you're out getting your groceries make a donation at the check stand to help provide those families an extra holiday meal."

Last month, the "Turkey Bucks" campaign provided over 3,000 full dinners for Idaho families.
