BOSTON, Massachusetts – Hannaford Supermarkets today announced the return of an initiative that will honor Massachusetts volunteers for their commitment to promoting health and wellness in the community.

The “Hannaford Health Hero” program will recognize the work of 12 Bay State volunteers who inspire others within the community to make healthy choices for life on behalf of non-profit organizations.

Hannaford Supermarkets will donate $500 to the non-profit on behalf of the recipient in recognition of the organization’s commitment to health and wellness. Additionally, the individual honoree will receive a $50 Hannaford gift card.

“At Hannaford, we strongly believe in promoting health and wellness within the communities we serve,” said Hannaford Supermarkets Community Relations Specialist Molly Tarleton. “I encourage non-profit organizations to shine a spotlight on outstanding volunteers by nominating them to be a Hannaford Health Hero. We look forward to hearing about the exceptional work that takes place each day in Massachusetts.”

Two honorees from Massachusetts-based registered 501(c)(3) organizations will be announced each month from April through June and September through November.

Nominations must be submitted by executive directors or volunteer coordinators of registered 501(c)(3) organizations in Massachusetts. Nominations submitted by anyone other than an executive director or volunteer coordinator of a qualified non-profit organization in Massachusetts will not be considered.

Nominees may be cited for a specific action or their overall commitment to health and wellness.
