In the past week, Stewart’s Shops donated $52,645 to 146 organizations in our communities. These donations included $8,639 in product, $12,856 in gift certificates, and $31,150 in monetary support. For many years, Stewart’s Shops has been giving back more than $2 million annually to our shops’ communities and neighborhoods. Part of that commitment includes matching our customers’ donations of over ¾ million dollars during our Holiday Match campaign. The Dake Family foundations also contribute $2 million of Stewart’s stock to local charities each year. The corporation buys the stock back from the charities. This benefits Stewart’s employees by increasing their percentage of ownership to nearly 40%. Here is a list of organizations which were given donations the week of May 4th:
