Companies Helping Us Get to PNG–and how you can, too!

In our team’s support-raising endeavors to raise ongoing, sustainable funds, we have discovered two extremely helpful programs which we would now like to pass on to you!

Both Fry’s Food stores and Amazon.com have programs that allow participants to donate a percentage of their purchases to the charity of their choice, thus making it possible for people like you and me to give that percentage to the gospel mission in Papua New Guinea.

If you’re not already signed up for the programs below, take a gander and see if it would work for you to participate! They are both companies which you may shop at anyway and take about five minutes (or less for Amazon’s program) to sign up…

 2. Amazon Smile

What is AmazonSmile?

AmazonSmile is a website operated by Amazon that lets customers enjoy the same wide selection of products, low prices, and convenient shopping features as on Amazon.com. The difference is that when customers shop on AmazonSmile (smile.amazon.com), the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the price of eligible purchases to the charitable organizations selected by customers.

Here’s how you sign up!

-Visit  http://smile.amazon.com/ch/31-1750907

– Sign into your account

– Search for the legal name of our organization ‘University Bible Church’ and select it

-You’re signed up! Now, anytime you want to make a purchase on amazon, use smile.amazon.com instead of amazon.com (if you make purchases through good ole’ Amazon.com, we won’t see a percentage of it).
