From time to time the office staff is made aware of an opportunity for us to bless this Church financially through our normal, daily spending and/or giving patterns. For instance, last year we informed everyone about the “AMAZON SMILE” program…for those who do any online shopping through Amazon.com. A small portion of each Amazon.com purchase is sent to Remnant Fellowship because we are a legally recognized and registered non-profit, 501(c)3 organization. We would like to remind everyone on how this amazing feature works. There is no additional charge to you – it simply takes a percentage of what you are going to order and contributes it toThe Remnant.
TO USE THE AMAZON SMILE FEATURE:
1. Visit https://smile.amazon.com/ to create or sign into your Amazon account.
2. In the search bar type in Remnant Fellowship.
3. Then pick the Remnant Fellowship in Franklin Tn.
You are then signed up for Amazon Smile – and once you start shopping .5% of your purchases are given back to Remnant Fellowship!! Remember to Sign into smile.amazon.com every time you shop. If you use the regular amazon.com the benefits do not apply!!
Since we also have to go food food shopping we would like to make you aware that KROGER (Grocery Store) has a “Community Rewards Program” that is designed to benefit selected non-profit organizations as well. As a Church, we now are recognized in their system, and therefore we as MEMBERS of this Church can use any of our regular shopping (for those who shop at Kroger) to bless the Church…simply by signing up for the Program! Over TIME, these small increments/percentages that are allocated through such programs ADD UP! Note that you are not charged ANYTHING additional to do this. You are simply shopping at Kroger like you normally would.
So – Going forward, if you think you ever will shop at Kroger Stores, please follow the steps below to be registered in their system. Once you’ve finished that process, any shopping you do there…using your Kroger Plus card…will bless this Church going forward! SEE BELOW for the steps to follow – taken directly from the Kroger Community Programs Staff e-mail to us.
