A huge congratulations to the West Springfield Costco team!

In May, West Springfield Costco raised an incredible $85,000 to support Baystate Children's Hospital, our local Children's Miracle Network Hospital. 💙

This outstanding achievement earned the warehouse the distinction of being the top fundraising location in New England District 2!

This remarkable success is a testament to the generosity of Costco members and the dedication of the Costco team, who work tirelessly each year to help ensure local children receive the care they need close to home.

👏 Thank you to every Costco team member and member who contributed to this amazing effort. Your support is making a difference for kids and families throughout our community!
