Rounding Up at the Register

Rounding Up at the Register is a program that gives you the opportunity to give back to your local community every time you shop. You’ll have the option to round up to the nearest dollar when you check out, and the difference will be donated to a local non-profit. (You can opt to donate more*, if you wish!)

Every month we’ll donate to a different non-profit at each of our seven locations. Plus, we are matching your donations. Meet our May recipients, below.


COLLEGEVILLE:  Philadelphia Metro Wildlife Center

DOUGLASSVILLE: Animal House Project 

Animal House Project is an all-volunteer based charity. Their mission is to keep pets at home and out of shelters by providing food, supplies, and veterinary services to those in need. They serve families that are in the tri-county area including senior and retired military veterans, returning military, single parents, families that are impacted by the recession, dealing with serious medical issues, or other issues that may keep a family from being able to feed their pet. In order to further assist clients, they’ve partnered with The Spayed Club to provide low-cost spay and neutering. They also provide flea and tick medicine, and large quantities of food to shelters and rescues.

Lucky Dawg places animals in responsible, committed, and loving homes. Considerable care is taken to find good matches for both the animal and the adopter, and they remain committed to the animal’s welfare beyond the adoption process.

KIMBERTON: Ryerss Farm  

Founded in 1888, Ryerss Farm is the country’s oldest non-profit organization of its kind, dedicated to providing a comfortable retirement for horses. They care for aged, abused or injured horses, providing a home where they can spend their golden years out to pasture. The horses at Ryerss are never worked, go to auction, or are used for experiments.  They simply spend their days grazing and enjoying life with their friends, as part of the herd.
