that its commitment to the community extends beyond commerce. Associate Director of Brand Jordyn Prior explains that the program exists to financially assist certain groups and nonprofits as they apply for funding and make efforts to upgrade or expand. “We gave back just over $210,000 to over 180 different groups…and in 2022, we invested $10,000 per day to our local communities via equity, cash back, donations and volunteerism,” Prior says as a valid point of pride. This program stands in tandem with other initiatives like the “Goodbye to Hunger” Campaign and “Communities in Mind,” which focus on raising money for local food groups and raising awareness about mental health, respectively. Cornerstone also fosters youth engagement through programs like “Bags for Breakfast” which actively donates a portion of profits from recyclable bag purchases back into the nutritional food budget for local schools.
