A Winnipeg-based health market has won an award for its charitable commitment to the community.
Vita Health Fresh Market was recently recognized with the CHFA Spotlight Award in Toronto at the Canadian Health Food Association Expo.
The focus of the award this year was on charitable giving — recognizing a company’s involvement and participation in local community service, financial donations, sponsorships and/or local or international foundations and charities.
Vita Health has started a Go Green Bag Program. Whenever a customer brings their own bag, Vita makes a donation to one of two local charities. To date, over $7,500 has been raised for local charities through this program.
