Going Green Again: Shamrocks Against Dystrophy

We're a month away from St. Patrick's Day, but shamrocks will be on display at all Market stores beginning next Tuesday, February 15. 

We will be joining other retailers around the country for Shamrocks Against Dystrophy. This is the Muscular Dystrophy Association's (MDA) fundraiser to send kids with these diseases (a host of diseases that impact the voluntary muscles) to summer camp. Summer camp is a special treat for these children, who enjoy all the fun of camp surrounded by others with the same disabilities and diseases.

You can help send kids to camp by purchasing a shamrock at our checkstands. Add $1, $5 or $10 to your grocery bill whenever you shop with us...now through March 17, and we'll add that to our total donation to MDA. Our stores have participated in this worthy program for several years, and we're gratified to help the children who live in our communities and are impacted by these diseases. Thanks for joining us!
