Three Days – Three Ways: Give back through Associated Ministries

2015-gift-never-waster-graphic-300x300On Black Friday, give to support the work of Associated Ministries through your Fred Meyer Rewards Card.  Through their unique program, Community Rewards, you can support us just by using your Rewards Card.  All you have to do is link your Rewards card and scan it every time you shop at Fred Meyer. Whenever you use your Rewards Card by shopping at Freddy’s, you will be helping Associated Ministries earn a donation from Fred Meyer! If you do not have a Rewards Card, you can sign up for one at the Customer Service Desk of any Fred Meyer store.  Visit https://www.fredmeyer.com/topic/community-rewards-frequently-asked-questions for more information.

 Are you planning to take advantage of Thanksgiving weekend deals and shop online? It is estimated that more than 130 million people will shop online during Cyber Monday.  You can turn that shopping into an act of giving and support the work of Associated Ministries by visiting smile.amazon.com.  You shop. Amazon gives.  Select AM as your charitable organization of choice and the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the purchase price to us on your behalf!  Another great option is to sign up for the free site www.iGive.com. Shopping online through iGive.com allows a percentage of your purchase (usually around 3%) to be donated to Associated Ministries at no cost to you. 

 Finally, on Tuesday, December 1st, charities, families, businesses, community centers, and students around the world will come together for one common purpose: to celebrate generosity and to give.  #GivingTuesday is a global day that is currently celebrated in 68 countries and is dedicated to giving back and sharing our capacity to care for one another.

We are inviting all of our friends and supporters to join the movement and participate in this global celebration of philanthropy by making a generous gift to Associated Ministries.  On December 1st, check your email inbox for more information and instructions or check us out on Facebook or Twitter so you don’t miss your opportunity to give back!
