COMMUNITY CHEST
By shopping in an IGA store and buying IGA branded products or selected lines marked with the Community Chest logo, 1 cent from each of these products sold is set aside. At the end of each year, your local IGA store selects a local group or charity to donate all of the money that has been collected at the store.

Our three IGA Community Chest primary recipients of these substantial donations will be...

1. the Country Fire Authority, the world's largest emergency services organization that primarily protects us from the ravages of bushfire every summer and all sorts of other fire and general emergencies and..

2. Last year support from IGA contributed to training 21,419 school staff across Victoria in asthma management and assisted more than 239 CFA brigades. “CFA works all year round to reduce the effect and impact of fire in Victoria and IGA’s donations help brigades improve on the excellent work they are already doing,” said CFA Chief Executive Officer, Neil Bibby. “With summer upon us, it’s a great time to highlight this and to thank IGA for their continued support.” Michael Abramson, Professor of Clinical Epidemiology at Monash University said usually more people are affected by smoke inhalation during bushfires than burns and other injuries. In addition to taking measures recommended by fire services such as CFA, people with asthma need to protect their lung health during the summer season

3. the Starlight Foundation's sole purpose is to help our special children. This charity is dedicated to lifting the spirits of seriously ill kids and their families at times of great stress and hardship.




4. the IGA Community Chest Disaster Fund has been created to permit IGA retailers to direct masses funds towards those impacted by a "disaster" that has occurred.

Every time you purchase one of our quality IGA branded items we donate 1c to the IGA Community Chest.
