On Saturday, July 12, OxiClean™ and Kroger kicked off MLB All-Star Weekend with a high-energy, family-friendly event at the Kroger Marketplace Terrell Mill in Marietta. Over 300 community members gathered for live stain-fighting demos by OxiClean’s own Anthony “Sully” Sullivan, participated in family games, and enjoyed free food and giveaways.
The event also had a meaningful community impact, collecting over 200 non-perishable food items, which will benefit the Marietta Sixth Grade Academy through MUST Ministries and support local families facing food insecurity.
“We would like to thank our high-powered partner OxiClean for using their power to make lives a little brighter and lighter for students in need at Marietta’s Sixth Grade Academy,” said Victor Smith, president of Kroger’s Atlanta Division. “OxiClean is helping Kroger and MUST Ministries silence the hunger in the community, ensuring our children can get up and go to school hungry for knowledge – not hungry because they don’t have access to fresh, nutritious food. We truly appreciate the power OxiClean brings to the fight against hunger and to Kroger’s Zero Hunger | Zero Waste mission.”
