Whole Foods Market - 5% Day for the Whole Planet Foundation

Whole Foods Market - West Hartford will host a 5% day to support the Whole Planet Foundation. 5% of our store's net sales on March 8th will be donated to the Whole Planet Foundation!

The Whole Planet Foundation is a non-profit organization that helps alleviate proverty through microcredit in communities that supply Whole Foods Market stores with product, with a focus on the developing world.

A microcredit loan allows an impoverished woman entrepreneur to create or expand a home-based business, allowing her the opportunity to lift herself out of poverty. To learn more about the Whole Planet Foundation and how you can help make a difference, visit www.wholeplanetfoundation.org.
