Community Involvement
At Acosta, we’re proud of the work we do — for our clients, our customers and our community. We’re privileged to serve three designated corporate charities: the Muscular Dystrophy Association, for which we’ve helped raise more than $79 million since 1985 via the Aisles of Smiles Program; the Shop to End Hunger program sponsored by Feeding America, which has provided more than 4 million meals since 2006; and the Wounded Warrior Project through the Believe in Heroes consumer promotion campaign, which has raised more than $9.5 million since its inception in 2010.
In addition to these three corporate charities, many of Acosta’s local offices give back to their communities through various programs and fundraising events. Below is a partial list of the organizations our local offices support:
