Earn
cash rewards for your Temple every time you shop at Meijer. Donate without
donating!
For the past several years, our Temple has been
enrolled in the Meijer Community Rewards program. This program earns cash
rewards for our Temple every time you shop at any Meijer store. Every time you
pay for your purchases at Meijer with cash or other means, if you swipe your
freely-available Meijer 1 Card at the checkout counter, a certain percentage of
your purchases (0.5% for cash purchases) will go to the Temple. You do not need
to use a Meijer Credit Card to earn rewards; swiping your Meijer 1 card at the
time of purchase is all that is required. Many devotees have participated in
the program and as a result the Temple has received cash rewards and used them
for on-going operations. The more the number of devotees enrolled in the
program and the larger the overall purchase volume, the more cash rewards the
Temple earns. This is a way to donate without donating!
Meijer
has recently changed the organization code for our Temple, and therefore those
of you with Meijer 1 Cards need to re-enroll. And for those of you who do not
have a Meijer 1 Card, this is a good opportunity to enroll.
As the on-line enrollment procedure is confusing, we suggest
the following ways to enroll or re-enroll:
o
Please
call 1-800-962-7011, ask to be connected to Community Rewards, explain that you
want to apply for a Meijer 1 Card and that you want your cash rewards to go to
the organization with code 420 083 (namely, our Temple). You will be asked for
some basic information about yourself (name, address, e-mail, phone number).
The Meijer 1 Card will be mailed to you in approximately 2 to 3 weeks.
o
Please
pick up a paper application at your local Meijer store's customer service
counter, fill the portion dealing with Meijer 1 Card, and submit it at the
counter or mail it to the address given.
We thank the devotees who
continue to participate in the Meijer Community Reward Program and appeal to
others to enroll today in the program on behalf of our Temple. The key to the
success of this program is in your hands. Act now for the benefit of our Temple.
Thank you.
