Walgreens

We hope you are thankful for all the joyful moments, memories and accomplishments in your life—both big and small—and grateful for the health of you and your loved ones. To all team members and partners who make Walgreens a vital resource for communities across the country, especially the teams caring for today’s urgent needs of patients and customers at our 24-hour stores, #ThankYou! #HappyThanksgiving

In support of communities building back after two devastating hurricanes earlier this fall, Walgreens partnered with the National League of Cities to support their giveback event at their annual City Summit Conference in Tampa, Florida. Walgreens team members and our real estate partners from Generation Income Properties packed hygiene toiletry kits during the conference and were later joined by Tampa Mayor Jane Castor and CEO of National League of Cities Clarence Anthony to donate the finished kits to Tampa Hope, a local nonprofit. Special thanks to healthcare advocate Maria Averhoff, as well as Walgreens Regional Healthcare Director Georgia Lehoczky and Walgreens Senior Director of Government & Public Affairs Donovan Pepper for their local support of the event. #BuildingBack #GivingBack #Community #Partnerships

In the early days of Walgreen Co., we revolutionized customer service by offering ultra-fast home delivery that stunned both customers and competitors.   In what became known as the “two-minute stunt,” Charles R. Walgreen Sr. built a solid reputation and grew his business by delivering customers’ merchandise while they were still on the phone with him, just minutes after placing their order. Listen to an interview with CRW from 1926 in the second installment of Visualizing Our Past to learn how our focus on customer service has withstood the test of time. #Walgreens #CustomerService #Pharmacy #History #VisualizingOurPast
