5. Sign up at Kroger. A fourth opportunity, if you shop at Kroger, is through their Community Rewards Program. ROC is a part of the “Kroger Community Rewards Program” through which Kroger gives a percentage of a Kroger shopper’s purchase to a non-profit of the customer’s choice. To sign up for this program you may register online at http://www.krogercommunityrewards.com/.
Each Kroger shopper must register Reach Out on Campus as their organization of choice in order for ROC to receive donations through the rewards program for your purchases. This program does NOT cost you any money for participation and does not affect your Kroger Fuel Points. Kroger has provided us with the following step by step instructions to register Reach Out on Campus for the rewards program. Thanks so much for participating and helping support ROC’s ministry in this way!
