CCHS Selected as Beneficiary of Hannaford Helps Community Bag Program

KINDERHOOK, NY (March 26, 2021) -- The Columbia County Historical Society (CCHS) has been selected as a beneficiary of the Hannaford Helps Reusable Bag Program. During the month of April, CCHS will receive an automatic $1 donation for every Community Bag purchased at the Kinderhook Hannaford, located at 2967 Route 9, Valatie. The Hannaford Helps Reusable Bag Program launched in October 2015. The program is designed to support local nonprofit organizations through the sale of reusable grocery bags while reducing single-use plastic waste. The bags can be purchased for $2.50 at check-out registers. Store leaders at the Kinderhook Hannaford selected CCHS as the April beneficiary of the program. "During this challenging time, supporting community nonprofits is more important than ever," said CCHS Executive Director Lori Yarotsky. "We are honored to have been chosen for this terrific program that benefits our community as well as the environment." # # # For more information: Carrie Rodgers, communications@cchsny.org
