One of the best ways to show everybody that your business care is to give back to charity. Kroger is one of the biggest for profit organizations that give back to charity. In 2010 Kroger gave back the highest percentage of gross profit of over ten percent in a competition of 200 companies. Kroger gave back to communities and charities over the united states $64,000,000 to Giving Hope a Hand Breast Cancer foundation, Honoring our Heroes, employing over 17000 veterans. The Kroger community rewards program helps reward members of Kroger to give back to the community. The more people spend on Kroger using the rewards card the more money goes into non-profit organizations such as schools and churches. Kroger is the founder of a charity company called Bringing Hope To The Table. This non-profit organization is a supplier of food banks and has helped over 20 states in the united states including Nevada, Colorado, California.
