The Fresh Market Launches Holiday Roundup Fundraiser for Feeding America®

Fresh Food Retailer Dedicated To Raising Funds For Food Bank Support This Holiday Season

GREENSBORO, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The holidays are a time when food brings people together. However, for over 47 million people in the U.S., including nearly 14 million children, food insecurity is a daily reality. That’s why The Fresh Market, a leading specialty fresh food retailer, is partnering with Feeding America® to launch its annual holiday round-up campaign. This initiative aims to make a positive impact by supporting local food banks as they feed people facing hunger during the holiday season.

Every dollar donated helps provide at least 10 meals secured by Feeding America on behalf of local partner food banks.

From Nov. 1 through Dec. 31, 2025, guests shopping at all The Fresh Market locations will have the opportunity to round up their total at the register to the nearest dollar or make a donation of their choice. Every $1 donated helps provide at least 10 meals secured by Feeding America on behalf of local partner food banks. One hundred percent of funds collected will go to the nonprofit, with 90 percent redistributed to local partner food banks and 10 percent to the Feeding America national organization.

"As we enter the season of giving, The Fresh Market is proud to once again partner with Feeding America to support families experiencing food insecurity,” said Emily Turner, Chief Marketing Officer of The Fresh Market. “By simply rounding up at the register, our guests can help spread hope and nourishment during the holidays. Together, we’re making the season brighter for people in need.”

“Food brings us together, especially during the holidays,” said Lauren Biedron, Senior Vice President of Corporate Partnerships at Feeding America. "We are deeply grateful for partners like The Fresh Market and their customers whose generosity can help build a future where everyone has food on the table – and hope to spread around – this holiday season and beyond.”

In addition to the current roundup fundraiser, The Fresh Market is committed to giving back to the communities it serves by regularly donating unsold food to local Feeding America partner food banks. This ongoing effort helps alleviate the impact of food insecurity and supports Feeding America’s overall mission to end hunger in America.

Join The Fresh Market and Feeding America this November and December in working together to end hunger. Together, we can make a lasting difference.
