Change to Kroger Community Rewards
In past years, August 1 began the Kroger "re-enrollment" period. Effective immediately, all participants will now "roll over" automatically and stay enrolled in their chosen organization, instead of having to re-enroll each year.
So if you are already enrolled, you need to
do nothing to keep your current choice.
Enrollment for NEW participants will work the same way as the past: sign up at
www.kroger.com or call 1-800-KROGERS,
option 3.
This program is free to you and brings cash to Ascension - thank you for participating!
