The holiday season has a way of shining a little extra light on what matters most—family, connection, and the comfort of sharing good food with the people we love. Here in Clay-Pinson and Warrior, Alabama, we know that a holiday meal isn’t just about the dishes on the table. It’s about the stories shared, the traditions passed down, and the feeling of home that brings our community together each year.

At Russell’s Piggly Wiggly, we believe every family deserves that feeling. That’s why we’re proud to partner once again with the Community Food Bank of Central Alabama, working to ensure our neighbors throughout Central Alabama have access to nourishing, meaningful meals this holiday season. And the simplest, most powerful way you can join us in this mission is by donating $1, $5, or any amount at checkout during your next visit.

A Simple Act With a Big Local Impact

For many families, the holidays can also be a time of added stress—especially when budgets are tight and grocery needs increase. When you give even $1 at checkout, you’re directly supporting the Community Food Bank of Central Alabama, which helps feed families right here in our region. That includes individuals and households in:

• Clay-Pinson
• Warrior
• Trussville
• Pinson Valley
• Northern Jefferson County

Your donation helps the food bank provide essentials like fresh produce, pantry staples, and ingredients for warm, comforting meals. A small gift goes a long way, especially when it comes from generous neighbors across #russellspigglywiggly locations working together.

Why This Partnership Matters

For generations, Russell’s Piggly Wiggly has been more than just a local grocery store. We’re a place where families gather, where familiar faces greet you at the door, and where Southern hospitality is more than a phrase—it’s a practice, day in and day out.

Our partnership with the Community Food Bank of Central Alabama reflects that commitment. The food bank serves over 230 partner agencies across Central Alabama, working to reduce hunger and strengthen communities. When you support them through your holiday shopping, you’re helping:

• Provide meals to families facing food insecurity
• Support seniors living on fixed incomes
• Ensure children have access to nutritious foods during school breaks
• Strengthen local efforts that uplift entire neighborhoods

This isn’t charity from far away—it’s help delivered straight to our own Alabama neighbors.
