Gift Cards?

Hello Everyone,

Your Share the Warmth Committee has been busy planning events and fundraising ideas so that we are able to raise the funds needed for our new heating system.  We have tried to be very careful that we aren't always asking you for your hard earned money.  We think we may have found a great fundraising idea that really won't cost you anything other than your participation and support.

We are going to launch a new program, using the company FundScrip. Basically this means that we will ask that you buy gift cards.  Do you buy gas and groceries?  Perhaps you could purchase gift cards and use them at the grocery store? There are several of the most popular companies offering gift cards.  We were disappointed that we couldn't get this program up and running in time for Christmas.  Early in the new year we will be offering information sessions and will start to take orders for the gift cards.  In the mean time, if you would like to purchase gift cards on line, for Christmas, as a supporter of St. Andrew's, you have time to do so.  Please be aware that if you use credit cards to pay for your purchase St. Andrew's will be charged a 1.99% fee.


If you need any help, I would be happy to help out.

On behalf of the Share the Warmth Committee; Donald, Cynthia, Carol, Matt, Scott, Steve and Nancy,


Joni
