March 18, 2022— Stewart’s Holiday Match funding has been allocated and checks have been sent to nonprofit organizations impacting children. This year, the Stewart’s Shops Holiday Match Program will benefit 1,716 nonprofits.

From Thanksgiving Day through Christmas Day, customers donated over $1 million to the program, which was doubled to over $2 million with Stewart’s match. There are no administrative costs with this program, meaning 100% of the funds collected and matched benefit these organizations.

According to Stewart’s Shops Director of Corporate Philanthropy, Jennifer Frame, “Charitable giving is a personal act of generosity and kindness. Stewart’s is honored that our customers have entrusted us with investing their dollars back into their communities and supporting organizations that benefit children. Sharing is a fundamental part of Stewart’s Shops culture and we are proud to match our customers’ generosity.”

The Stewart’s Holiday Match Program has now allocated more than $34 million since the program’s inception in 1986. The success of the program is credited to Stewart’s customers for their generous contributions, dedicated shop partners who worked diligently to collect the funds, and to the media partners who helped spread the word.

Stewart’s Shops is committed to giving back to the communities in which they are located, in 2022, Stewart’s Shops/Dake Family has a goal to donate $8 million to nonprofits in need.
