Albertsons Community Stewardship Grant for Local Nonprofits

Albertsons Market Foundation Community Stewardship Grant for Local Nonprofits

Donor: Albertsons Market Foundation, Albertsons Companies Foundation

About: The Albertsons Market Foundation Community Stewardship Grant represents a significant opportunity for nonprofits dedicated to addressing food insecurity and strengthening local communities. Through this initiative, Albertsons Companies Foundation demonstrates its commitment to creating lasting positive change in neighborhoods across their operational areas.

The foundation’s approach to community development is rooted in their remarkable achievement of enabling more than 1.15 billion meals between 2019 and 2023, surpassing their 2030 target seven years ahead of schedule. This accelerated success showcases their dedication to addressing immediate community needs while building sustainable solutions for the future.

What sets this grant apart is its localized approach to funding. Rather than adopting a one-size-fits-all model, each application is carefully evaluated by regional teams who understand local challenges and opportunities. This strategic approach ensures that funding directly addresses specific community needs and creates maximum impact where it matters most.
