Community Service Spotlight: Enmarket, Kraft Heinz, MAPCO, PepsiCo & Van’s Kitchen

ENMARKET

Savannah, Ga.-based Enmarket sponsored a coalition of local businesses who donated 51,000 reusable 20-ounce translucent water bottles to returning students in Savannah-Chatham and Effingham County public schools. The effort was intended to help ensure a safer experience for students since state guidelines recommend that schools turn off school water fountains during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Enmarket became the project's principal sponsor, providing 32,000 bottles to be distributed to 14,000 students. The retailer joined the project's initial sponsors, Thomas & Hutton, Savannah Technical College, Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation, ServiceMaster of Savannah, the YMCA of Coastal Georgia and Healthy Savannah.

"When we became aware of this need, we saw a way to give back to the community, give back to the education system and to make school a safe experience for students," said Brett Giesick, president of Enmarket. "When school officials deem it's safe for students to return, then they will have these bottles to use."
