How do Ahold companies contribute to the community?

We listen to what the communities where we operate say and support the causes they feel strongly about. We support a wide variety of community efforts, combining financial and in kind contributions with strong local partnerships. Main focus areas are social welfare, education, young people and health. We also strive to have a positive influence on a store's neighborhood, making sure it is clean, safe, and that it provides neighborhood information and interaction.
