The board of directors, CEO Sue Schroeder, employees and individuals served by Stepping Stones, salute Meijer and everyone at the Rockford store for their support and living out their motto which according to their website says:
"As a family-owned company, we're grounded in the philosophy of Fred Meijer, "...take care of your customers, Team Members, and community...and all of those will take care of you, just like a family."
"That's why we're committed to enriching lives in the communities we serve. That commitment is realized through our support of non-profit organizations, our sponsorship of hundreds of community events, and the donation of 6 percent of our net profit to various charities each year."
"At Meijer, we believe in doing great work while always taking care of what's truly important: family. Because for more than 90 years, that's just the right way of doing things."
