Shop at Kroger and support students on service immersion trips

An image of several people crouched under words on a black wall. The words are a quote from Martin Luther King, Jr., "...until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream."Every time you shop at Kroger, you could help a student attend a service immersion trip.

Service immersion trips offer students profound opportunities to engage with and serve communities beyond Detroit. These trips integrate service, education and spiritual formation with regular reflections, inviting students to ask critical questions about pressing social issues. Each year, donations allow University Ministry to subsidize the cost, making trips more affordable for students.

This year, students will travel to three locations across the U.S. Over spring break, students will learn about the Civil Rights Movement while serving alongside local community leaders in Montgomery, Ala. Another group will head to Washburn, Tenn., to explore sustainability challenges in Appalachia and develop a deeper understanding of ecological ethics. In May, students will travel to the U.S.-Mexico border to witness firsthand the complex challenges migrants face at the U.S.-Mexico border.

Kroger will make a donation to the service immersion fund every time you shop. To set up your Kroger shopper’s card:
