GIANT: Dollars for scholars

If you're a Giant shopper, the supermarket chain offers an easy way to raise money for your local school. Log in to your Giant loyalty card account, go to "Rewards and Savings," and click on "Learn More" or "Select Schools" in the A+ School Rewards box.
The company explains:
"At the beginning of the program each fall, Giant customers can register and designate up to two local schools to benefit from their grocery purchases. A+ School Rewards points accrue with each grocery purchase made using a Giant Food Card which are then credited to the designated schools."
Locally, Patton Middle School, Greenwood Elementary, Unionville High School and Upland Country Day School are registered as part of the program. You have to register at the beginning of each school year.
The company notes that since 2005, they've given more than $34 million to local schools. It's good to know that a percentage of the vast sums I spend at Giant will be going to two of them.
