Fareway Stores recently announced a second donation in the amount of $200,000 to the Iowa Association of Chambers of Commerce (IACC). The donation provided for up to $2,000 in gift cards to IACC chamber of commerce members in the communities Fareway serves.
The Charles City Area Chamber of Commerce applied for and received $2,000 in $50 gift cards, which were distributed this month to local community nursing and assisted living facilities, Floyd County Medical Center and Comprehensive Systems to benefit their front-line health care employees. Earlier this year, the Chamber and local Fareway store managers distributed a total of $3,000 in gift cards to small businesses in town that were impacted the most by required business shutdowns and restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic.
