ST. LOUIS — Starting today, and continuing through Tuesday, Sept. 29, Schnucks customers are able to contribute to the United Way simply by:
- Traditional Checkout - Customers may round up their grocery purchases to the nearest dollar.
- Self-Checkout - Customers using self-checkouts who wish to donate may choose a $1, $3 or $5 “Scan and Give” option.
- Donate Your Rewards - Schnucks Rewards members also have the opportunity to donate their rewards points to United Way as part of the Donate Your Rewards program.
Schnucks has a decades-long history of supporting United Way, and during last year’s company campaign, teammates, customers and the company donated more than $2.1 million - including more than $108,000 from the Round Up at the Register.
"Our commitment to nourishing people’s lives is at the heart of everything we do at Schnucks, and our annual United Way campaign and accompanying Round Up at the Register are powerful ways that we put that commitment into action,” said Schnucks Chairman and CEO Todd Schnuck. “When our customers join this effort by generously rounding up a few cents at a time, they directly strengthen the very communities in which they reside. Every dollar raised stays local, providing vital support to the friends, family and neighbors who need it most.”
One hundred percent of customer round ups will benefit the United Way chapters in the communities in which they are donated. These funds will contribute to the organization’s mission of bringing communities together to find strength and share hope and to rally in hard times to meet people’s needs so they can rise back up and build a better future.
“We are deeply grateful to everyone whose generosity helps people across our region live their best possible lives,” said Michelle D. Tucker, President and CEO of United Way of Greater St. Louis. “Schnucks’ longstanding partnership strengthens our community campaign and helps create healthier, more hopeful futures for the people and communities we serve.”
