Consumer Philanthropy

What is consumer philanthropy?
Consumer philanthropy is a trend that allows individuals to utilize their spending power as a consumer to benefit non-profit organizations. When an individual participates in a consumer philanthropy program such as the WFGM Kroger Gift Card Give Back Program, a percentage of their purchases translate into a philanthropic gift to the designated organization.

Purchase Power = Philanthropy Power
