Last week, Tops presented Arc of Erie County New York with proceeds from the 2025 Taste of Buffalo Tops tent and prize wheel. While the proceeds amounted to just over $13,000, Tops rounded up the donation to $15,000 for this organization, which does so much for the greater community.

 Tops Friendly Markets takes great pride in giving back to the communities we serve, and what better way to do so than by being the presenting sponsor of The Taste of Buffalo. While this is an event Tops looks forward to being involved in, it is the impact this event has on the community that brings Tops back year after year.

For the past 22 years, Tops has served not only as the presenting sponsor for this event, but also as a vendor. The underlying goal that day, however, is to fulfill our philanthropic mission. While participants are enjoying the many delicious foods under the Tops tent or trying their luck on the Tops prize wheel, the true joy comes in that we are really giving back to our fellow neighbors in need as proceeds from the Tops tent and prize wheel benefit a new charity each and every year.

The check presentation took place at the Tops Friendly Markets corporate office in Williamsville.
