How often do you go shopping? How often do you support your local rivers? Why not do it at the same time? PCS has partnered with Kroger and Amazon Smile to earn rewards when customers choose PCS to receive a portion of the profits upon purchasing items from them. Set up your Kroger Community Rewards membership with your Kroger Card and set Amazon Smile instead of the normal amazon site with PCS your chosen organization. Amazon Smile is the same store as Amazon, just going through the Amazon Smile “door” to get there. The money we receive from Kroger and Amazon Smile is put to use in conserving our local rivers. It costs you nothing and signing up takes less time than pumping gas!

Every year in April and May, Kroger requires members to renew their Community Rewards membership. Please renew and support us so we can continue putting those dollars into our rivers and streams. To renew your membership, just sign into your Kroger account and select Partners for Clean Streams to receive a portion of Kroger’s profits. If you are not already earning rewards for us with the Kroger Community Rewards program, then it only takes a few steps to link your Rewards Card to PCS. For further instructions and to learn how you can earn rewards for local rivers, check out the instructions here.

If you’re a frequent online shopper, and Amazon is your go-to play for all things, next time try Amazon Smile. When you designate Partner for Clean Streams as the organization of your choice, a percentage of every purchase you make will go to protecting your rivers in the greater Toledo area. Head over to www.smile.amazon.com, sign in, and select Partners for Clean Streams. Amazon Smile still has all the great deals and stores to shop from online. Replace your current Amazon bookmark with Amazon Smile, and you’ll be on your way to improving your local rivers! Both of these programs cost you nothing and it’s quick, easy, and a seamless way to make a real difference. In advance, thank you for making our rivers a priority.
