KROGER REWARDS
Are you helping the band when you go grocery shopping? It’s so easy, and really helps us a lot. Once you link your Card to an organization, all you have to do is shop at Kroger and swipe your Shopper’s Card. Here’s how it works:
1. Create a digital account. (A digital account is needed to participate in Kroger Community Rewards. If you already have a digital account, simply link your Shopper’s Card to your account so that all transactions apply toward the organization you choose.)
2. Link your Card to an organization: “Roswell High School Band”
