2026 Change Recipients

The Merc Co+op is excited to announce the recipients of the 2026 Change for our Community program. “Change” gives shoppers the opportunity to donate their spare change to local organizations every time they shop. Each month, a different organization is featured as the recipient, and 100% of all donations collected go to that specific organization.

Since the program began in January 2014, we have raised over $700,000 for local nonprofits.
