About KidCents

 

The Rite Aid Foundation is deeply committed to communities and the customers who comprise them. That’s why we created KidCents, an easy way for Rite Aid’s wellness+ rewards members to make a difference in their own neighborhoods.

 

By participating in KidCents, wellness+ rewards members can round up every purchase to the nearest dollar, giving kids in need a chance for better lives and brighter futures. We’ve partnered with organizations in local communities that are committed to helping improve the health and well-being of children.

 

Through the KidCents portfolio, the Foundation tackles the toughest health and wellness challenges in Rite Aid communities, including chronic illness, child abuse, homeless shelters, food banks, therapeutic services and more. 

 

Your change prompts change, right where you live, in ways that bridge societal divides and ensure equitable opportunities for all.
