Greenfield, Indiana, December 30, 2022 – Leo’s Market and Eatery is in the ‘market’ of giving back in a big way to all the communities within which their store locations reside. Just before the Holidays, employees of all three respective Leo’s Market and Eateries donated portions of their paychecks to an organization in need within their local community. In total, nearly $3,500 went to a not-for-profit of each store team’s choosing in Greenfield, McCordsville and Noblesville.
Leo’s Greenfield presented a check to Talitha Koum Women’s Recovery House for $1,763 (pictured left). Talitha Koum offers a recovery program for women 18 years and older who desire to live free from addiction providing them with a safe, family-like environment to rebuild their lives and learn how to live sober.
The Leo’s McCordsville team presented Geist Montessori Academy with a check for $1,148 (pictured right). Geist Montessori is a tuition-free, public charter pre-k to eighth grade school that provides academics infused with character building and community awareness to develop the whole-child and prepare students for life.
“We are so grateful for the generosity and kindness displayed by the Leo’s Market and Eatery staff. The corporation offers a matching program for employees to donate to an organization of their collaborative choosing, and they chose us! Thank you, Leo’s!”

The employees of Leo’s in Noblesville raised $513 for the Boys and Girls Club of Noblesville (pictured right). The Boys and Girls Club provides opportunities for youth to enjoy activities and experiences that shape character and enriches lives.
Employees donate a dollar amount of their choosing from each paycheck to be donated to charity two times annually. Those donated funds are then matched by Leo’s parent company, Pride Investment Partners, and then donated to the organization via a special ceremonial check presentation. Since opening its first location in 2019, Leo’s has given over $35,000 in monetary donations and gifts in the communities within which it operates (Greenfield, McCordsville and Noblesville).
