Guilford ABC has been selected as a beneficiary of the Big Y Community Bag Program for the month of September.
The Big Y Community Bag Program, which launched in January 2019, is a reusable bag program that facilitates community support with the goal to make a difference in the communities where shoppers live and work.
Guilford ABC was selected as the beneficiary of the program by store leadership at Guilford Big Y. During the month of September, GABC will receive a $1 donation every time the $2.50 reusable Community Bag is purchased at this location unless otherwise directed by the customer through the Giving Tag attached to the bag.
“What a great way to show support for the community, especially in these difficult times,” said Georgia Cosgrove, Co-president of Guilford ABC. “We’re pleased that Big Y has recognized the value of Guilford ABC, both for our scholars and for the community at large.”
Now in its 48th year, Guilford ABC — A Better Chance —is dedicated to helping close the opportunity gap for academically talented students of color from educationally disadvantaged communities. Our scholars are young women selected from a national application pool for their academic and leadership potential. The program exists to help these scholars attend a four-year college track program in our community, attend a college or university of their choice and become confident, contributing members of our society. Guilford ABC is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. For more information about the program, visit www.guilfordabc.org.
