TL;DR

Batteries Plus has announced a partnership with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital as part of its Power with Purpose platform, pledging to donate $7 to St. Jude for every qualifying battery pack sold in February.

“Power with Purpose started as an idea to build purpose into what we do,” said Scott Williams, CEO of Batteries Plus. “In just one year, it’s already become a defining expression of who we are and how we serve our customers and support our communities. We’re grateful for the dedication across our teams and the generosity of our loyal customers for making this platform come to life and helping us grow its impact.”

Throughout the entire month of February, Batteries Plus is pledging to donate $7 to St. Jude for every qualifying Duracell Coppertop AA or AAA 36-pack of batteries sold.

“We are incredibly proud to stand alongside St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in support of a mission with unmatched reach and life-saving impact for children and families,” said Williams. “St. Jude is one of the most recognized and trusted nonprofit organizations in the country. This partnership reflects the scale of our ambition and the strength of the Power with Purpose platform our teams have built.”

To further support the mission, customers can receive instant savings of $10 off qualifying 36-packs of batteries during the promotional period. And for those who want to help but don’t need batteries right now, Batteries Plus encourages customers to donate directly to St. Jude through the campaign webpage.
