How the program works?
King Soopers will pay out $2.5 million quarterly, to be divided amongst all registered nonprofits with a maximum payout of $125k to any one organization. The amount received by Scrap Iron Softball Club is our percentage of spend in relation to the total spend of all King Soopers Community rewards organizations. For example, if the total spend in a quarter comes to .1% of the total for all organizations; we get $1,500 for the quarter. Our objective is to increase our percentage of the total spend.

The Scrap Iron Softball Club supporter must enroll in the program on the King Soopers website and designate Scrap Iron Softball Club as the beneficiary. Enrollment steps are easy for our supporters.

RMD CHARITABLE GIVING
Many of our members will not be itemizing deductions on their tax returns this year. Consequently, your charitable donations may not have as great a tax benefit. For those members in their 70’s (including inherited IRA’s even if the recipient is under 72) faced with a required minimum distribution (RMD) from retirement accounts, one way to lessen the tax impact is to make RMD payments payable directly to a charitable organization. Scrap Iron Softball Club is an eligible charitable organization. The check can be for the full amount or any portion of the RMD, but must be made payable to the non-profit (as designated by IRS) directly. Please check with your IRA custodian to see if your retirement account allows said contributions. It can be mailed or forwarded to the following:
