BJ's Donates $22,500 to Local Charities
BJ's Charitable Foundation announced donations to two Westminster, MD charitable organizations.
The first is the Family and Children's Services of Central Maryland in Westminster. BJ's Charitable Foundation is donating $7,500 to underwrite the expenses for low-income seniors receiving care from the West End Place Medical Adult Daycare.
Family and Children's Services of Central Maryland is a nonprofit agency, providing targeted services to vulnerable families and individuals in all stages of life who are experiencing problems related to social and personal adjustment thereby enhancing their quality of life.
The second non-profit to receive a donation is the Human Services Programs of Carroll County in Westminster. BJ's Charitable Foundation will donate $15,000 to purchase supplies for clients and for the direct service, program-related portion of the salaries of part time shelter support staff for the Women & Children's Shelter. Human Services Programs of Carroll County, Inc. (HSP) is Carroll County’s officially designated Community Action Agency.
The BJ’s Charitable Foundation was established with the mission to enrich every community BJ’s Wholesale Clubs serve. The Foundation supports nonprofit organizations that primarily benefit the underprivileged in the area of basic needs (hunger prevention, self-sufficiency, education and health).
