At Habitat for Humanity of New York State, we believe in the power of partnership to create lasting change in our communities. Today, we were reminded of that power thanks to the incredible generosity of Global Partners LP and their customers. Through the “Get a Coke, Share a Coke” holiday program in partnership with Coca-Cola, Global Partners donated $16,000 to support affordable homeownership across New York State.
This unique program, which ran from October 31, 2024, to January 1, 2025, brought together the spirit of giving and the joy of sharing a refreshing beverage. Customers at Alltown Fresh, Alltown, XtraMart, Wheels, and Jiffy Mart convenience stores participated in this initiative by selecting Habitat for Humanity of New York State as their charity of choice (Greater Boston Food Bank and First Robotics New England were the other beneficiaries). For each selection, Global Partners donated $2.50, helping to build a brighter future for families in need of safe, affordable housing.
We want to extend a sincere thank you to Global Partners LP for their leadership and commitment to Habitat’s mission. Their innovative approach to combining customer rewards with charitable giving made it easy for their loyal customers to make a meaningful impact.
We also want to acknowledge and thank the customers who participated in this program. By simply choosing Habitat for Humanity of New York State while redeeming your free beverage, you became a vital part of our mission to empower families through homeownership. Your participation highlights the true spirit of community: coming together to make a difference.
Every dollar donated helps us build and advocate for affordable homes for families across New York State. These homes provide not just shelter but also the foundation for stability, opportunity, and a brighter future. Your support enables us to continue working with families, volunteers, and communities to create lasting change.
