Every day a family walks into a grocery store. Picking out food to make for meals throughout the week. Every year since 2023, Coburns, and its subsidiaries have encouraged shoppers to support the Folds of Honor Fundraising Campaign. The Folds of Honor Foundation during September makes supporting the organization and its education scholarship easy with dedication pledge banners hung at partnered stores.
Marketplace Foods in Houghton has been a local partner since 2023, and over that time helped raise more than 178,000 dollars. The Folds of Honor Foundation provides educational scholarships to military members and their families.
Started in memory of Lt Col Dan Rooney, who died while deployed in Iraq, Folds of Honor seeks to life changing support to deceased military members’ family and children. Those interested in learning more about the folds of honor fundraising camping and how to donate, at the store or online can find more details at here.
Marketplace foods offer 1 dollar 5 dollar, and 10-dollar donation posters the grocer has already begun posting around the storefront.
