How It Works

  • At checkout, you’ll be asked whether you’d like to round your total up to the nearest dollar

  • The extra cents (your “spare change”) goes into our Round Up fund

  • Each year, our Owners vote to select 12 local organizations. Every month, one of those organizations receives the money raised during that period.

  • It’s a simple way for shoppers to support neighbors doing good work!

Who Can Benefit

  • Nonprofits and community organizations working within southern Berkshire County and surrounding areas

  • Causes aligned with health, food access, sustainability, social justice, education, and other community priorities

Round Up for Change

Timeline & Important Details
