(Williamsville, NY) - Tops Friendly Markets, along with our vendor partners American Beverage Marketers (Agalima), Daily Crave, GOYA, Grace, LaPreferida, NY Produce, Ole, River Valley Foods, Romero Foods, and Xochitl Chips are proud to support National Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15 – October 15, 2024) and local organizations like Spanish Action League of Onondaga County (La Liga). “During National Hispanic Heritage Month, we are honored to celebrate the incredible contributions and achievements of Hispanic Americans throughout history,” said Kathy Sautter, director of corporate communications and public relations for Tops Friendly Markets. “With the support of our vendor partners, we are excited to give back to our community by donating over $41,000—our largest contribution to date, largely made possible by our partners at GOYA—to several local nonprofit organizations that serve Hispanic communities daily. Today and every day, we recognize and celebrate the heritage, diversity, and integrity that Hispanic Heritage Month represents.” “We are always so grateful for this partnership every year,” said executive director of Spanish Action League of Onondaga County (La Liga), Elisa Morales. “This awareness and help is so important to our population. It truly is instrumental to our entire community. It is also helpful to introduce the wide variety of ethnic offerings Tops carries to others in our neighborhood they may not realize Tops has to offer.”

A check presentation and product donation will be made to La Liga at the conclusion of Hispanic Heritage Month.
