We’ve heard that some parishes and synagogues have found grocery store gift certificates to be terrific fundraisers. This could be true also at St. David’s with your help and support.

When:	all year (please start bringing your check book to church!)
Where:	St. David’s 8:00 and 9:45 Sunday morning services
How:	for every $1000 St. David’s gift certificate purchases—the church nets $50.

Grocery “opportunities” at present are

Shop Rite
Acme
McCaffrey’s

To purchase: write a check to St. David’s for the denomination (s) you can use ($10, 20, 50 or $100) on Sundays and purchase from

Things to bear in mind:

a) You need to fully use your gift certificates when purchasing at the grocery store. Change cannot be issued in excess of .99! If you really make a mistake—the grocery store should be able to issue you a new gift certificate for the discrepancy (say you only spend $39 with a $50 certificate) but that will certainly increase your time in the grocery store and for all in the line behind you!

b) These are much like cash—they cannot be replaced if you misplace or lose them.

If you have questions, please call, and many thanks for your support!

Note:
Your purchase will NOT appear on your Giving Statements. However, contributions in excess of the face value of the certificates will appear. (3/21/04)
