Associated Food Stores Raises $85K For Make-A-Wish Utah

Associated Food Stores partnered with Make-A-Wish Utah to raise funds that help grant life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses.

This year's campaign raised $84,943.73 - $3,000 more than last year's total - with employees at Macey's, Lin's, Dan's, Dick's Market and Fresh Market helping lead the effort, collecting donations in-store and online. Each location focused on a local Wish Kid.

"The Make-A-Wish drive is something our team looks forward to every year," said Greg Welling, VP of retail operations at Associated Retail Operations (ARO). "As a local company, we're proud to support causes that directly impact the families in our communities. This partnership gives us the opportunity to bring hope to children when they need it most."
