Ralphs Reward Program can be completed over the phone or online

Since March 16, the LW community has been asked to stay home and practice social distancing due to the COVID-19 virus. It made cooking from home an essential way of life, and now each household has a larger need for grocery shopping. While many shareholders spend a lot of money on groceries, there’s a way to help others and donate to GAF while shopping.

One of the ways that people can help GAF is through the Raphs Community Rewards Program. Sign up on www.ralphs.com. People will need their Ralphs Rewards Card number to register or the phone number associated with the account.

Those who don’t have access to the Internet can sign up by phone. The Ralphs Rewards registration number is (800) 443-4438. Be sure to let them know the GAF nonprofit organization (NPO) number with Ralphs is FS 519.

This is a great opportunity for residents to help GAF as it works to enrich the lives of other Leisure World residents. Just by signing up and doing their normal grocery shopping at Ralphs, LWers can help GAF obtain a portion of these funds at no additional cost.
