Wednesday, February 24th, United Way of the Florida Keys visited Publix stores in Key West, Marathon, and Key Largo to thank employees for their generous campaign support.
Publix Supermarkets is the top supporter of UWFK’s campaign. In 2015, through individual paycheck donations and a generous corporate matching gift, Publix’s in the Keys gave UWFK nearly $175,000. This is an increase by nearly 17% from last year.
UWFK board members, staff, and volunteers celebrated Publix’s long-term commitment to strengthening the Keys community by walking store aisles and visiting store break rooms to thank employees in person. United Way is incredibly thankful to Publix for their leadership, compassion, and generosity. Our community benefits immensely from the food, education, and safety net programs their donations help fund!
