Change for our Community gives shoppers the opportunity to donate their spare change to local organizations every time they shop. Each month, a different organization is featured as the recipient, and 100% of all donations collected go to that specific organization.<\/p>\n

The Change for our Community program values organizations that share our commitment to the health, well being, sustainability and education of our community. By creating a partnership with our customers we work
together to bring financial support to these organizations.<\/p>\n

How Change Works<\/h2>\n

The Change Program has methods of giving: Round Up to Create Change.<\/p>\n

Round Up to Create Change is a way for customers to round up their purchase to an even dollar amount. 100% of the donations collected are directed to the chosen organization of the month.<\/p>\n

Who Can Partner for Change<\/h2>\n

Applicants must be local, non-profit organizations serving our community. Change does not subsidize partisan organizations or organizations that advance a particular religious belief or political cause. We ask that schools, both private and public, direct their donation requests through our Donations Program rather than the Change Program.<\/p>\n

Decisions are made by a committee of co-op employees. All organizations applying for Change will be notified about the status of their request.<\/p>\n
