The Midland Meijer, located on Eastman Ave. today announces its $10,000 donation to Home To Stay Housing Assistance Center, a local nonprofit that promotes self-sufficiency to Midland County residents in need of stable housing and support services.
As a part of the Meijer Team Gives program, the Midland Meijer team members voted to choose this nonprofit due to its meaningful connection to the community and the team. The funds will support Home To Stay’s Homeless Prevention program. We are proud to work with many community organizations, including MCTV.
