Joining in the celebration of Veterans Day, Southeastern Grocers yesterday celebrated the opening of four Winn-Dixie supermarkets in Florida.
The new stores are located in Boynton Beach, Gainesville, Jacksonville, and Lakewood Ranch, SEG said in a statement.
In recognition of Veterans Day, Winn-Dixie, together with the SEG Gives Foundation, donated a combined $80,000 to veteran-related initiatives, including $25,000 to support local veteran organizations within the new stores’ communities, $30,000 to Folds of Honor to provide six scholarships to the children of disabled and fallen service members, and another $25,000 donation to Folds of Honor in partnership with Maxwell House.
