Community Kickback Programs
J & H Family Stores locations are committed to their surrounding communities. Charitible giving and community involvement make up the foundation of our business and we are firm believers in giving back to the communites who support us.
The Community Kickback program was started in 2009 to showcase and support local charities in West Michigan. Every month, J & H Family stores designates the proceeds from a specific product to support a selected West Michigan charity.

JHFS Supports Special Olympics
Through West Michigan Whitecaps' Non-ProfHITS program, J & H Family Stores contributed $1000 to Special Olympics of Michigan. Every time third baseman Nick Castellanos made a hit throughout the 2011 season, a donation was made to Special Olympics on behalf of JHFS. Special thanks to Nick and the West Michigan Whitecaps for making this campaign a great success.
