KROGER NEIGHBORHOOD REWARDS PROGRAM: Chairperson: Bridgett Stegeman
Mary, Queen of Heaven has partnered with the Kroger Company to support the Youth Group of our parish. It costs nothing to participate. It only takes a few minutes of your time during your shopping trip to your local Kroger store. When parishioners, neighbors and friends of Mary, Queen of Heaven reload their gift cards, 4% of the total purchases will be credited to our parish, and refunded to us on a monthly basis. To get your card, contact the rectory. When shopping at Kroger, stop by the customer service desk and RELOAD your gift card you obtained from the Mary, Queen of Heaven rectory. You can do this with cash, credit card or check. Do this before you begin shopping. It takes 5 minutes to be recognized on your card. Then when you pay for your groceries, use the gift card and the money will be deducted from the card. You can reload the card with any amount. You can still use your Kroger Plus Card, coupons, etc. for weekly specials and discounts. The remaining balance will show on the bottom of your receipt. If you lose your card, call the rectory. We have your Kroger Card number on file, and Kroger tracks the value remaining on each card. Once a card balance is depleted be sure to reload it the next time you shop. DO NOT THROUW THE CARD AWAY. Depleted cards are deleted from the system after 90 days. At that point, the card cannot be reloaded. A new card will need to be obtained from the Mary, Queen of Heaven rectory.
