A 2-Minute Way to Support Carbondale Schools

Good news: You can help support our schools without spending a penny!

It’s called the City Market Community Rewards program, and it’s one of the easiest ways to make a difference for Carbondale classrooms. If you already shop at our local City Market, you’ve already done 95% of the work.

By linking your City Market account to the Carbondale Education Foundation (CEF), a portion of your regular grocery spending goes toward supporting students and teachers across our local schools.

No extra cost.

No extra steps after setup.

Just something good happening in the background.

Here’s how to set it up:

Step 1: Create or log into your City Market digital account

Step 2: Go to “Community Rewards” in your account settings

Step 3: Search for “Carbondale Education Foundation”

Step 4: Select CEF and click “Save”

That’s it.

Once you’re set up, any time you shop using your City Market Card, City Market will automatically direct rewards to support local schools through CEF.

It’s a small action; my grocery bill this quarter has amounted to $16 in donations. But if 100 people do the same — wow. Those small numbers add up quickly!

(And if you’ve already set this up, thank you. It really does make a difference!)
