New Scrip Program!

Did you know you can raise money for Beth El while doing your everyday shopping? All you have to do is purchase gift cards from America’s favorite retailers and use them in place of cash, checks, or credit cards for purchases you were going to make anyway! Each card purchased carries an associated “contribution” of 2-15% or more. Gift cards are available from over 300 national and local retailers. Groceries, clothing, dining out, home improvement, even gasoline can all be purchased with Scrip.

The process is simple. Use the attached order form to select the cards you’d like and either bring it in to the office with your check or credit card or fax it; we’ll call you for a payment method. There will be a service fee of $10 for the use of a credit card. Your order will be received within 3-5 business days.

Initially, we will offer cards from 15 different retailers. Once the program is up and running, we will expand our offerings and introduce an online ordering component. In the meantime, if there is a particular retailer you are looking for just call the office, we’ll be happy to help!

Tell us what you think...

In an effort to enhance your Beth El experience we ask you to share your thoughts, concerns, or questions. All submissions will be treated with the utmost of confidentiality. We look forward to hearing from you.
