The summer of 2005 was one of the most devastating hurricane seasons of the last century. In the wake of the hurricanes, many of our Team Members lost their homes and their way of life. As a result, FamilyHOPE was created. FamilyHOPE is a program that allows Family Dollar Team Members to give financial support to other Family Dollar Team Members impacted by natural disasters, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, earthquakes, fires, and terrorist acts. Through FamilyHOPE, Team Members impacted by a natural disaster are eligible to submit an application for financial assistance to help them get back on their feet.

• This fund only benefits Family Dollar Team Members.
• 100% of contributions go toward helping our Team Members; the Company pays all administrative fees.
• We have engaged an independent firm, Foundation For The Carolinas, to manage and administrate this fund. Family Dollar Team Members who submit an application for a grant deal directly with Foundation For The Carolinas.
