Albertsons Companies Foundation has donated $5,000 to the Veterans Initiative project at ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû¶Ìƪ. This is the second year that the Albertsons Companies Foundation has provided support for the Military Articulation Platform (MAP). This investment in MAP will decrease the amount of time Veterans spend in college by maximizing the amount of credits they receive for germane military work experience and military training.

ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû¶Ìƪ is ranked as a Veteran friendly institution. As a result, ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû¶Ìƪ has earned a Military Times' Best for Vets Award for the past five years. ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû¶Ìƪ has also earned the 2021-2022 Military Friendly® School designation. This marks the second designation of this kind since 2018.

Founded in 2001, Albertsons Companies Foundation, formerly Safeway Foundation, supports causes that impact customers' lives. Per its mission statement, Albertsons Companies stores provide the opportunity to mobilize funding and create awareness in our neighborhoods through the generous contributions by our customers, our employees' passion and partnerships with our vendors. We focus on giving locally in the areas of health and human services, hunger relief, education and helping people with disabilities. Albertsons Companies and Albertsons Companies Foundation have invested $1 billion in our neighborhoods since 2001.
