SCRIP & FUNDRAISING COMMITTEE

SCRIP CORNER

Thank you to the Tsukroff and Moscowitz families for signing up to participate in the Scrip Program and placing orders right away!

Thank you to the 10 families who placed orders for the past three months in a row (April, May, June):  Berg, Blumenfeld, Freedman, Gong, Orr, Senator, Solomon, Tauscher, Weiss, Zalaznick.  These families have shown their continued commitment to fundraising for Or Chadash, and we appreciate their efforts so much!

Announcing our April-May-June raffle winner:  Sandra Gong!  Sandra wins a $25 gift card to GAP!  Congratulations, Sandra!

Simply put, Or Chadash could use all the help you can give with this monthly fundraiser.  There is a pile of free money out there that we can bring in to Or Chadash if we take a couple steps and use scrip to buy what we would anyway.  We have 48 members signed up in our Scrip Program. If you are a member, make the commitment to ordering every month!

If you are not yet a member, it's never too late to get in on this fundraising gem!  Scrip is another name for gift cards, and when you sign up to buy them on the ShopWithScrip website, every purchase you make earns Or Chadash much-needed (free) funds.  There are hundreds of retailers, offering varying percentages back to Or Chadash.  And Or Chadash shares the benefits with you as credit on your dues.  This is truly a win-win opportunity!

Here is how members of the Scrip Program are helping Or Chadash each month:

Can we count on you to place an order in July? Our July deadline is Monday, July 22.

Buying scrip each month is a wonderful mitzvah you can do all year long! Check this out:
  • $500 of ShopRite scrip each month for a year = $240 earnings for OC
  • 50 families ordering $500 of ShopRite scrip each month for a year = adds up to $12,000 earnings for OC!!!

We can do this!


Take a look at the ShopWithScrip website, and please contact Christine Berg with any questions:  cberg3@comcast.net

THE SHIMON AND SARA JCC  of BRIDGEWATER
INVITE YOU TO JOIN THEM AT THE BALLOON FESTIVAL
 
This year, the SSB-JCC will be participating at the QuickChek Festival of Ballooning! This is an awesome 3 day event, including hot air balloons, live concerts, amusement rides, fireworks, and over 200 crafters and vendors.
 
Join us for a weekened at the 2019 QuickChek New Jersey Festival of Ballooning - Solberg Airport, Readington, NJ: July 26, 27 & 28, 2019!
There will be raffle tickets for sale in support of the JCC's Special Needs programming, face painting, giveaways, and a lot of fun at the JCC tent!

To make this event a successful one, we need many JCC volunteers to help man our table where we will be selling raffle tickets in support of our Special Needs Programming. In just a matter of a few short years the JCC's Special Needs program has grown to play such an integral role in the special needs community. This fundraiser will allow the JCC to continue to support the JCC Bridgewater Rising tide with bathing suits and competition apparel. It will allow special needs children the opportunity to attend camp and enjoy a summer of fun. It will allow our J Cares interns the opportunity to enjoy days at the JCC swimming, working out, and socializing. It will allow families the opportunity to drop their children off at the JCC on a Sunday afternoon and enjoy an afternoon of respite while their child spends time with our loving and caring J Zone staff and volunteers.
 
Please register using the link below; the available timeslots will be listed there:
 
We are looking to have our volunteer list finalized by July 15!
