Mission: The Krysta Hankee Memorial Fund purchases Giant Gift cards through Giant's "Cash for Causes" program.

Our partners have the ability to house the gas cards and through their social service systems discover the families in most need of transportation support to address critical needs. They distribute the gift cards which can be used for food or fuel. On a regular basis each partner reports on the positive impact the cards have made on the people they serve Monetary awards are granted to students at Lehigh Carbon Community College and Northwestern Lehigh High School. Students receiving the awards must demonstrate a high degree of scholastic achievement and community service in an effort to develop strong leadership skills.
