Register Round-up

Help support non-profit organizations by contributing to Change for the Community Register Round-ups! Every time you check-out at CCM, you can round your transaction total up to the nearest dollar amount. The difference goes into a collective Change for the Community fund. Each month we'll select a different 501c3 organization as the recipient of those funds (every single penny goes straight to the non-profit organization chosen for that month). It's that simple. We'll let you know who the recipient is each month, so you can decide if and when you'd like to contribute. Your pocket change can make a big impact when it's combined with your neighbors. 

We need your help! Let us know which local 501c3 organizations we should consider for future drives, and members will vote on which organizations we give to each year.
