Our Change Matters program generates funds for local, non-profit, and community-enrichment organizations through donations collected at the registers at both Wedge locations. Co-op shoppers are invited to round up their purchases to the next dollar every time they shop, and these small-change donations add up to impactful contributions. While we cannot guarantee a certain dollar amount will be raised across our two retail locations, we typically raise up to $10,000 each month. 100% of the donations go to our partner organizations. Through this program Wedge Community Co-ops seek to create meaningful, productive, and lasting partnerships with local organizations.

For more than 40 years, Change Matters has partnered with organizations doing remarkable things—from building community gardens and feeding families in need, to bringing fresh, local produce into local classrooms. Our commitment supports our greater mission of rebuilding and investing in our neighborhoods, addressing the hunger crisis, and uplifting communities that deserve support—particularly Black, Indigenous, Immigrant, Refugee, and other communities of color.
