In an effort that kicked off this week, the Save Mart Companies launched a campaign to support American Red Cross Fire Relief’s efforts during the massive wildfire emergency underway throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, Central and The “Round Up The Change” fundraiser started Aug. 24 in all Save Mart, Lucky, Lucky California, and FoodMaxx stores. Shoppers can “Round Up The Change” at checkout and donate the difference to the American Red Cross Fire Relief. Shoppers are welcome to donate more than just the change to support their fellow neighbors and Californians impacted by the devastating fires.
