1% Community Cash

Since 1991, Nelson's Markets has been donating much needed funding to hundreds of non-profit organizations in East-Central Minnesota through its 1% Community Cash Program.

It's Easy! All organizations need to do is collect Nelson's Receipts from their members. They then turn them in to Nelson's four times a year. Nelson's, in turn, sends them a check equal to 1% of the total amount of the receipts. There is no limit to the amount an organization can earn. The more receipts they turn in, the more they receive in funding!

These funds can go towards anything that the Non-Profit wishes; Scholarships, Instruments, Mission Trips or General Funding. Through our Community Cash, we have donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to local non-profit organizations. But what really matters to us isn’t the amount, it’s the stories that are told to us about the lives we have been honored to touch.

Total Monies Donated Through 2009: $289,156.12
