Every penny of round-up donations will support The Salvation Army in the communities in which it is donated. In 2021, Schnucks and its customers donated $266,000 to The Salvation Army as part of the Round-Up campaign.

At the conclusion of the Round-Up, Schnucks will welcome back The Salvation Army’s bell ringers and their iconic red kettles. Starting Friday, Nov. 25, and continuing through Christmas Eve, bell ringers will return to all Schnucks stores, Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. - 7 p.m. daily.

“Through our Round Up at the Register campaigns our generous customers continue to show how a few cents can quickly add up and make a difference in the lives of those less fortunate in our communities,” said Schnucks Chairman and CEO Todd Schnuck. “Our company and The Salvation Army have been partners for nearly 40 years, and we’re honored to continue that partnership this holiday season through the Round-Up at the Register and by once again hosting bell ringers at all of our stores.”

“The donations raised through the Schnucks Round Up campaign will make sure families have food on their tables for their holiday meals, assist with utility and rental assistance, and will give Schnucks customers the opportunity to help these families have brighter holidays,” said Lt. Col.
