Support Gutenberg with eScrip
Monday, March 3rd, 2008
The eScrip program is an exciting new way to give to Gutenberg College without donating your personal funds. The eScrip fundraising program coordinates with local merchants to help non-profit organizations. Up to 8% of what you spend on groceries, clothing, airline tickets, dining-out, and other items can be donated to Gutenberg.
For example, if you shop at Market of Choice, the store will donate 2% to 4% of the amount you spend on your monthly purchases. The larger your grocery bill, the higher the percentage that the store will donate.
A variety of other stores participate in eScrip, including Macy’s, Eddie Bauer, OfficeMax, and American Airlines.
