On
September 1, Ralphs grocery stores wipes the slate clean on its “Community
Reward” program, and we need to build back from Square One!
The
Ralphs Rewards card is your standard grocery store “club card” that gets you
discounts and whatnot. But you can ALSO register it with a Ralphs-approved
charity, and EVERY time you shop and use the card, Ralphs will kick in a small
percentage to the charity of your choice. It costs you, the consumer, NOTHING.
It’s just Ralphs kicking in a couple bucks to good causes.
And
yes, The Hero Initiative is one of those Ralphs-approved charities, and yes, we
need YOU to re-register your card for Hero, which is easy as pie (tho’ not
quite as tasty):
1) Sign in to Ralphs.com
with your email and password
1a) If you have not created
an account, create one now! Takes about 60 seconds!
2) Click on “My Account,”
the orange box at the top of the page
2a) Click on “Account
Settings”
3) Pan down to “Community
Rewards” at the bottom of the right column.
3a) Hit “edit” or “enroll” to
reset yourself for Hero Initiative or to sign up for the first time!
4) Now enroll! When signing
up, our NPO # (non-profit organization #) is: 80680, and we're under our
corporate name, "A Commitment To Our Roots." Don't let it throw ya!
4a) Click “Save” at bottom
5) Now go get a pie.
Seriously, folks, if you do this once, we get a few nickels every time you shop, and multiplied by a
San Diego Comic-Con full of people, it’s the best, easiest way we’ve found to
raise funds. Totally painless. And hot dammit, you need bologna and Q-Tips
anyway!
This
applies to Ralphs, Foods Co. and Food 4 Less stores in Southern California,
Nevada, Illinois, and Indiana. So if you’re in those necks of those woods, hop
to it. I thank you kindly.
