Community Giving

Whole Foods Market is an active member of the Twin Cities community. We are extremely proud of our community involvement and the relationships that we continue to make each month! We strive to make a difference.

Our Community 5% Days are one meaningful way we give back to our community. On designated days throughout the year (four total) a total of 5% of the day's net sales are donated to local non-profit organizations. Customers help support our selected organizations just by shopping on these 5% Days.

 

Some of our recent Community Support Day recepients include:

  • Project for Pride in Living
  • Como Friends
  • Minnesota AIDS Project
  • Renewing the Countryside
  • Sow the Seeds
  • Steppingstone Theatre

Applications are accepted and reviewed on an ongoing basis.  To apply, complete the application form and return to Whole Foods Market St. Paul.
