It is time to re-enroll in the Kroger Community Rewards Program, which runs from May 2010 to May 2011.  If you have family members or friends who participated on our behalf, please forward this information to them.  All enrollments/re-enrollments must be done online.  Members can no longer scan the LCC barcode at the registers or service desk.  Please be sure to read the Notes on Page 2 of this document.

 Here’s how the program works:  When you shop at Kroger and use your Kroger Plus card, the LCC receives a reward check each quarter, based on the percentage of spending our group does in comparison to other participating non-profit organizations.  Kroger will award up to $500,000 per quarter in the state of Michigan.  Funds are raised for LCC with every transaction our registered group members make.  Exclusions include, but are not limited to, sales tax, tobacco and alcohol purchases.  Even if you do just a small amount of shopping at Kroger, please register your Kroger Plus card, as every little bit will help!
