BANGOR, Maine – Brighten up your day with a bouquet of flowers that gives back to the local community. Literacy Volunteers of Bangor has been selected by the Hannaford store leadership as the benefiting non-profit in the brand-new Hannaford Bloomin’ 4 Good Program for the month of February.

The Hannaford Bloomin’ 4 Good Program is an easy way for shoppers to give back as part of the regular shopping routine. Every $12 Bloomin’ 4 Good Bouquet with the red circle sticker sold supports a non-profit local to the Hannaford in which it was purchased.

As part of this ongoing program, every month at every Hannaford location a different local non-profit is selected to benefit from the sale of the Bloomin’ 4 Good Bouquet. Literacy Volunteers was selected as the February beneficiary by local store leadership at the Hannaford located at 773 Stillwater Avenue (near the Bangor Mall) in Bangor. Literacy Volunteers will receive a $1 donation for every $12 Bloomin’ 4 Good Bouquet purchased at this Hannaford location in February. 

“Flowers can make someone’s day, brighten up a room or spread a smile,” said Mary Marin Taylor, executive director of Literacy Volunteers of Bangor. “Now they can give back, too! We are thrilled to be chosen to benefit from this unique and impactful Hannaford Bloomin’ 4 Good Program, as the demands of those in need are higher than ever this year.”
