Why this matters to us
"Our grandparents were Kroger regulars. We still use their phone number at checkout. Those grocery runs are some of our most cherished memories and now they're how we build something lasting for Southeast Michigan's next generation."

Most of us grew up in grocery stores. Saturday mornings with a parent or grandparent, cart in tow, knowing the layout by heart. Kroger was part of the rhythm of family life. When The Austin Foundation enrolled in Kroger Community Rewards, it felt like a full-circle moment.

For us, Kroger has always meant family. Now it means opportunity for the young people across Southeast Michigan we serve every day through youth sports, life skills programs, and digital literacy education.

Linking your card costs you nothing. For a kid in Southeast Michigan, it adds up to everything.
