Market Street and Sartori Cheese Support Make-A-Wish with $20,000 Donation
At The United Family, giving back is at the heart of what we do. This year, The United Family and Sartori Cheese partnered to support Make-A-Wish, helping bring hope and joy to children facing critical illnesses.
Through this special campaign, guests who purchased Sartori Cheese products at any United Family store in Texas or New Mexico–United Supermarkets, Market Street, Amigos, and Albertsons Market–made wishes come true. Thanks to their support, Market Street and Sartori Cheese were able to donate $20,000 to Make-A-Wish.
“We are deeply grateful to The United Family and Sartori Cheese for once again championing the mission of Make-A-Wish this holiday season,” said Murphey Sears, chief development officer for Make-A-Wish North Texas. “Their continued support is crucial in helping us grant the wish of every eligible child across the 161 Texas counties we serve. We look forward to a successful campaign and many more years to come.”
This campaign is especially meaningful to Gary Taylor, deli business manager for The United Family. His late son, Spencer, was once a Make-A-Wish recipient, and granted a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Italy. In Spencer’s honor, The United Family began the campaign in November with a $10,000 donation, setting the stage for another impactful year. Sartori Cheese later matched the donation with an additional $10,000 (from sales) bringing the total to $20,000.
“The reason I care so much about Make-A-Wish and continue to support them is that they gave Spencer the ability to squeeze in a lot more life out of his 15 years than he would have ] otherwise,” Taylor said. “They provided our family with many incredible memories that will stay with us forever. We are truly honored that Sartori has partnered with us at The United Family to make this donation in honor of Spencer.”
This initiative reflects The United Family’s commitment to community impact, made possible by the generosity of guests and vendor partners like Sartori Cheese. Every purchase, every donation, and every shared story contributes to making dreams come true for children in need.
Thank you to everyone who supported this campaign and helped make a difference!
