Harris Teeter Launches Together in Education Round Up Campaign Campaign to benefit education nonprofits Classroom Central, The Salvation Army, Communities In Schools and the Alliance for a Healthier Generation

MATTHEWS, N.C., July 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Harris Teeter will kick off its new round up campaign, Together in Education (TIE), on July 1 to direct funds to nonprofit organizations that support the needs of educators and students in communities across the Southeast.

The Together in Education campaign will benefit Classroom Central (Charlotte-area stores only), The Salvation Army, Communities In Schools and the Alliance for a Healthier Generation. Harris Teeter customers can contribute to the campaign by rounding up their transactions to the nearest whole dollar at checkout from July 1 through Sept. 29 at all Harris Teeter locations. The Together in Education campaign in 2025 raised more than $1 million for the same non-profit organizations.

"Since 1998, Harris Teeter has contributed more than $34 million through our Together in Education programs," said Danna Robinson, director of corporate affairs and customer relations for Harris Teeter. "This round up campaign furthers our commitment to education by providing an opportunity for customers to support their local teachers, students, schools and after-school programs."

Funds collected will be distributed among the nonprofit partners, with 100% of the proceeds staying within the local community where the donation is made. Donations will be used for after-school programs and wellness initiatives, along with providing classroom supplies and educational resources to directly benefit educators and children. Funds raised for The Salvation Army will specifically support after-school programs.
