Local Store Support

Is your organization seeking a $25 gift card to use as a raffle item at your next fundraising event? Do you need a gift basket as a door prize, spaghetti for that spaghetti supper or cups and napkins for your event? All requests for local support valued at $100 or less should be addressed to the Store Manager at your local Hannaford.

Use our store locator to find your nearest Hannaford Supermarket.

Regional or Home Office Donation/Sponsorship Requests

Please review the following criteria before applying:

• All donation and sponsorship requests must be submitted through our online application form (see "Apply Now" link below). We cannot accept requests received via U.S. mail, fax or email.
• For requests to support scheduled events, we require that applications be submitted at least eight (8) weeks prior to the event.
• For your request to be considered, your organization's focus and event (if applicable) must fall under one or more of our priority giving areas: health and wellness, child development and families, and/or hunger relief.
• We ask that each organization submit no more than one request per calendar year. This allows us to support as many qualifying nonprofit organizations as possible throughout our five-state service area. If you have more than one fundraising event you would like us to choose from, our online application will require you to submit separate proposals for each event. If your request is for program support, and your organization has multiple programs you would like us to consider, information for all programs can be submitted on one request.
• We work diligently to respond to all requests as quickly as possible; however, a response to your request may take up to three weeks due to the volume of inquiries we receive.
• Unfortunately, we cannot support all requests. Please click on the "Requests we generally do not fund" tab below to review a list of request types that we will decline.

Because Hannaford focuses on charitable efforts, we do have specific requests we are not able to support. These include:

• Solicitation on our premises. Hannaford does not permit leafleting, selling candy, cookies, flowers, etc. on our property by any organization for any purpose. We can, however, consider a donation in lieu of solicitation.
• Individuals. However, we do give to nonprofit agencies that help individuals.
• Requests from faith-based agencies for religious purposes; we can consider humanitarian aid, such as food for people in need.
• Educational scholarships: we focus our support on the Hannaford Charitable Foundation Scholarship Program for associates and their dependents.
• Re-granting organizations. We seek to make direct donations as opposed to working through another organization.
• Professional development seminars and conferences.
• Lobbying or political activities.
• Travel expenses.
• Adult non-professional sports teams.
• Pageants.
• Private clubs.
• Any organization or event outside our marketing areas, national or international.
• Golf tournaments.
• Celebratory events defined as galas, carnivals, festivals, fairs, etc.
• Fulfilling pledges of others.
