Weis Markets announced donations of $800 to two Berks County schools as part of its first Weis 4 School program.
Donations were presented to Glenside Elementary School in the Reading School District and Spring Ridge Elementary School in the Wilson School District.
According to a statement from Weis, in September 2020 the company invited public, private and parochial pre-K through eighth grade schools to register for the Weis 4 School program. Then, families and school supporters linked their Weis Preferred Shopper cards to the school they intended to support.
Afterwards, shoppers generated rewards points for their chosen schools through qualified purchases made with the cards. At the end of the program, each participating school earned a portion of the $500,000 donation based on the number of rewards points generated through the program.
“These donations reflect the commitment that we share with our customers to the communities where we live and work,” said Ron Bonacci, Weis Markets Vice President of Advertising and Marketing. “We are proud to support local schools through challenging circumstances.”
