Shepherd of the Hills works with a company called "Great Lakes Scrip"
to provide the gift certificates and cards that you purchase each week.
We are always seeking volunteers to help sell Scrip between services.
Training is provided and it is a great way to meet others in our church
family! Come join the fun and help us continue the Parish Nurse
program, as well as making additional mortgage payments for SOTH.
Remember that 75% of the proceeds from Scrip sales goes to the Parish
Nurse program and 25% goes to the Mortgage. We need everyone's
participation to make this program a success!
Remember that Scrip can be purchased Monday through Friday during
regular office hours (8 a - 2 p). Scrip is ordered on Tuesday mornings
and arrives on Fridays. It is distributed on Sunday mornings, unless
other arrangements have been made. On-going fundraising programs:
Albertson's Community Partners: Working with Albertson's food stores,
we acquired the community partner cards for our congregation. Everytime
a member of SOTH shops at Albertson's and gives the cashier their
partner card, we receive a check for a percentage of the purchases. The
more that is purchased, the higher the percentage back to SOTH. If you
don't have a card and you shop at Albertson's, stop by the Scrip table
and pick one up today. These cards are simple to use and can help to
support our programs.
Safeway E-Scrip: If you shop at Safeway and have a Safeway Club
card, you can also participate in this fundraising program. Simply
bring your Safeway Club card to church and fill out the form at the
Scrip table, and we'll do the rest to get you entered into the
computer, or send an email to the SOTH office with the following
information: Your name, Safeway Club Card Number, Your address, and
your telephone number. Then, everytime you use your Safeway card, SOTH
will receive a percentage back to help support our programs.
Bashas' Thank You Rewards: Each year from September through January,
Bashas' helps non-profits by providing a percentage of the purchases
from the organization's members. Starting in September, members can
take SOTH's organization number and "attach" it to their Bashas' Thank
You card. Then, every time you use your Bashas' Thank You card, the
purchases are totaled for the organization's number and in March a
check is issued to the organization based on the total purchases. Our
number is: 24796
