ST. MARY HAS JOINED THE KROGER

COMMUNITY REWARDS PROGRAM!

Kroger has begun a new program in an effort to aid local non-profit organizations during these difficult economic times.  They have earmarked 2 million dollars each year for this program.

  We are pleased to announce that St. Mary is now a part of that program.  Kroger will contribute 5% of your grocery bill when you utilize your Kroger Plus Card.  You will not lose any of the benefits of your card, you will just also benefit St. Mary.  But you must register your Kroger Plus Card for St. Mary to reap the benefits.  To register your card, please complete the following procedure step by step exactly as it is written:
