Manna

Our Lady of Loretto Parish

proudly presents The Manna Program

With the holidays just around the comer, let me remind you of a wonderful fundraising program that will cost you nothing! Are you curious?

Well let me explain.

The Manna Scrip program was designed to benefit schools, churches, and non-profit clubs/organizations at no extra cost to their participating families by purchasing gift cards/certificates from our parish at face value. We receive a discount by purchasing these cards through Manna and we pass these discounts to you and our parish. Participating in the program allows you to earn credits, which can be used toward a student's tuition, gift cards/certificates, or if you wish, you may donate it back to our parish.

For example: you purchase four Jewel gift cards totaling $100, which provides you, a purchaser a 2% credit. $100 X 2%=$2.00. You receive a credit of $2.00 and our parish also receives a credit. Many parishioners use these cards to purchase their prescriptions at Walgreens, Dominicks, CVS and Kmart.

COOKING FOR THANKSGIVING? We have cards for Jewel, Dominicks and certificates for Freshline.

SHOPPING FOR A NEW WARDROBE? We have gift cards for Macy's, Carsons, Kmart, Kohls, JCPenney, Options (The Gap, Old Navy, and the Banana Republic). Another benefit, Kohls accepts our cards for charge card payments!

DINING OUT? We have cards from Pizza Plus, Baracco's, Fox's, Darden (Olive Garden, Red Lobster), Chili's, Let Us Entertain You, Appleby's and more.

DRIVING SOMEWHERE? We carry BP, Shell, and Speedway.

BRIDAL SHOWER OR BABY SHOWER? We carry Bed, Bath & Beyond, Crate & Barrel, Toys R Us.

Trust me, once you start to purchase these cards you will be amazed at how quickly your credits accumulate.

Attached is a list of participating merchants that we normally have in stock. On the other side is the complete list that Manna carries. These can be special ordered. We also have information at our web site ourladyloretto.com.

We have tried to make it as convenient as possible. Manna is available for purchase at the rectory during regular business hours Monday through Friday; at Market Day, or arrangements can be made for evening pickup by contacting the rectory, or please free to call me, Lauren Slade, chairwoman at 708-636-6579. I will be happy to answer any questions that you might have.

TRY IT! YOU WILL BE GLAD YOU DID! Thank You!
