Changing lives for the better.
Our founder, George Jenkins, believed people could be successful if they had opportunities to learn, the resources to assist them, and positive experiences to inspire them. To help people improve their lives and achieve success, Publix Super Markets Charities supports a variety of nonprofit organizations and programs for youth, education, and more.
