ST. LOUIS – Schnuck Markets, Inc. is supporting The Salvation Army’s Tree of Lights campaign by activating “Round Up at the Register” beginning Saturday, Nov. 10 and continuing through Thursday, Nov. 22. Schnucks customers may choose to round up their purchase to the nearest dollar, with 100% of donations supporting The Salvation Army community centers in the customer’s area. Then starting Friday, Nov. 23 and continuing through Christmas Eve, The Salvation Army bell ringers and their iconic red kettles will return to Schnucks stores for the holiday season. The Salvation Army’s Tree of Lights Campaign allows the organization to provide assistance to the most vulnerable, by helping with food, utilities, and emergency rent and mortgage payments.
The bell ringers are a holiday tradition at Schnucks stores, and this year we wanted to extend that partnership through a ‘Round Up at the Register’ which our customers have so generously supported for other causes,” said Todd Schnuck, Schnucks Chairman and CEO. “We are grateful for our long-standing relationship with The Salvation Army as both of our organizations are focused on giving back to the community, feeding children and families, and helping make our region a better place to live.”
