Kroger Community Rewards

When All Else Fails...Ham Radio Comes Through

Created with Sketch.

Kroger’s web page explains the program as:

Giving More Back to the Community!

Kroger is committed to helping our communities grow and prosper. Year after year, local schools, churches and other nonprofit organizations will earn millions of dollars through Kroger Community Rewards®.

Kroger Community Rewards® makes fund-raising easy..all you have to do is shop at Kroger and swipe your Plus Card!

1: If you shop at Kroger you are likely aware of the Kroger Plus Card that lets you save on purchases and earn points and rewards with savings on your in store purchases and fuel at their fuel pumps. The Kroger Community Rewards Program is a program that they use to award cash to qualifying organizations in our community. The value of their monthly donation is determined by the number of points a participating organization earns from those who create a customer account with their Kroger Plus card. 

2: Kroger has assured us at Mid-State Amateur Radio Club that enrollment in the Kroger Community Rewards program WILL NOT and DOES NOT affect the points you earn toward fuel purchases or other rewards they offer. They will MATCH the number of points you earn from your purchases with the community rewards program. And based on the number of points earned, this will determine the value of the Community Rewards they award the club every month. Mid-State Amateur Radio Club qualifies for this program due to our 501 (c) 3 status with the United States Internal Revenue Service as a non-profit organization. 

Simply put; After you register your Kroger Plus card and say this week you earned 100 points on your Kroger Plus Card from your purchases, the Mid-State Amateur Radio club earns 100 points too! You lose nothing and we gain your support for repeater or other equipment maintenance we use to provide community support when responding to disasters or severe weather spotting for the National Weather Service to name a few.
