Southeastern Grocers Inc. (SEG), parent company and home of Fresco y Más, Harveys Supermarket and Winn-Dixie grocery stores, is partnering with nine children’s hospitals across the Southeast to raise essential funds for pediatric care in recognition of National Cancer Research Month.

Now through May 17, customers in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana and Mississippi are encouraged to support their local pediatric care facilities by rounding up their grocery bills while shopping at their neighborhood Fresco y Más, Harveys Supermarket and Winn-Dixie grocery stores. Donations made during the three-week community donation program will directly and positively impact young patients and their families by promoting health and healing.

Anthony Hucker, President and CEO of Southeastern Grocers, said, “At Southeastern Grocers, we strive to be the neighbor our neighbors can count on, especially during their most trying times. Children’s hospitals serve as vital community health resources and offer a beacon of hope for young patients and families on their journey to healing. We are committed to supporting our local pediatric care facilities to ensure all children receive the specialized, quality care they need as we work together to build stronger, healthier communities.”
