About Round Up For Change

We seek to support local not-for-profit initiatives essential to addressing hunger in Brattleboro, Windham County, and our local community.

Through our shoppers' generosity, we collect donations each month and write checks to each of the participants for use toward the growth of their missions and local programs. The month's total donation amount is divided equally between the organizations featured.

This is entirely a shopper-driven fundraising effort. Our cashiers will ask you if you want to “Round Up” your purchases when you check out. With your consent, your purchase total will be “rounded up” to the nearest dollar, and the difference will be donated to that month’s participating organizations. Those few cents each time you shop at the Co-op add up quickly and have done much good in our community.

Thank you.
