Dear friends,

As the holidays near, all of us at Nugget Markets hope you and yours are staying healthy and safe. Whether you’re celebrating Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, the solstice or any other occasion, there’s no doubt we could all use a little holiday cheer. 2020 has been a trying year in so many ways, yet we continue to rally through it together, finding—and often fighting for—the silver lining through every new challenge.

Now more than ever, we’re craving the ability to rekindle joy with those we love. Although it’s likely we will be celebrating the holiday season in a very different way and in much smaller groups, our teams have been working hard to create new, innovative and delicious options for your holiday celebrations. I encourage you to explore our new Holiday Meal for Two and the additional safety measures we’re taking to ensure the safest and most enjoyable foods possible.

Along with the hard work our teams have been putting into making your holidays special, our community giving team has also been working hard to ensure we’re doing our part to support those who need it most. Earlier this year, Nugget Markets contributed more than $100,000 to local food banks and disaster relief funds, and hosted a $25,000 matching fund drive for wildfire relief. We also donated $100,000 to nonprofit organizations devoted to social justice that were selected by our associates. And, as is our company tradition, we’re continuing to support food banks in our neighborhoods to ensure hungry families and individuals in our communities are taken care of during the holidays.

There’s no question this year has been a hard one, but we’re still hoping to end it on a high note. Despite all that is happening in the world, we hope you will be able to take time to enjoy the holiday season with family and close friends over a delicious meal or two (and perhaps some video calls, as well). If we all do our part to keep ourselves and one another healthy and safe, and support those in need now and in the future, we believe our communities can grow even stronger and our world will be a better place.

From our family to yours, we wish you and your loved ones the best of health and a wonderful holiday season.

Sincerely,

The Stille Family
Eric, Kate, Stephanie, Riley and Mackie
