Gift Card Program

Supermarkets, Movies, Books, Gasoline, Department Stores, Cruises, AND MORE!
Janet Breskman, Gift Card Coordinator

TBA, a non-profit organization, has participated in a terrific fundraising program from Great Lakes Scrip Center for the last 5½ years.  Great Lakes offers an enormous selection of gift cards and sells them at discount to non-profits, who, in turn, sell them to their supporters.  Our supporters (you!) purchase the gift cards from TBA at face value and use them instead of cash or credit cards when you shop, or you can give them as gifts—to children, parents, teachers, mail carriers, employees, etc.

Visit GLScrip.com, click on Retailer List--Alphabetically or By Category--to see the vast array of vendors and gift card denominations available.  If you eat or shop anywhere, Great Lakes probably has you covered!  Select as many vendors as you want, and e-mail complete information for each choice to janetbreskman@verizon.net, including, for example:

STORE NAME

Denomination
$10, $25, $100, etc.

Number of cards

Total $

Acme

$100

3

$300

Starbucks

$25

2

$ 50

TOTALS

5

$350

Then write a check for the grand total of your order, payable to Temple Brith Achim Sisterhood, and mail or hand it and your printed order to Janet Breskman, 315 Covered Bridge Road, King of Prussia, PA 19406.  Assuming Janet has received enough paid orders such that our total profit exceeds the $15 shipping charge, she will place the orders on the first Monday of every month or as soon thereafter as sufficient orders have arrived.  The cards usually arrive by Thursday of the same week and will be available for pick up at Janet’s home or at TBA on Sunday morning.

PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE ANY ORDERS OR CHECKS FOR JANET AT THE SYNAGOGUE—EVER!!!!  Your order will be transmitted to Great Lakes Scrip Center only after Janet has received your check, so be sure to get it to her in timely fashion. 

NOTE:      We’re sorry, but we can’t afford the credit card fees for this project; they exceed our profits for some of the retailers.  Nor can we wait for the funds to be sent by Visa or MasterCard to TBA and then to Sisterhood and then into Sisterhood’s bank account, from which the funds were removed the moment the order was placed!
