 The
Bernardsville Fire Company has joined an exciting new fundraising project
called Choose-a-Charity.
Started by local business owner Lisa Howard, (Pancakes and Jelly in Olcott Square), Choose-a-Charity provides a great opportunity for you to support your local fire company at no cost to yourself. Here is how it works: Local retailers are asked by Choose-a-Charity to sign up to donate a percentage of sales to charity. Local non-profit ogranizations, like the Bernardsville Fire Company, can sign up to become recipients of these donations. That is where you come in. Residents wishing to participate are given key-tags, just like you carry for the grocery stores. Any time you shop at a participating retailer, present your key-tag to the merchant at the time of payment. A percentage of the proceeds from your purchase of qualifying items will be donated to the charity of your choice. If you are a retailer and wish to register as a participating merchant, please go to Choose-a-Charity for more information and instructions. If you would like to receive a key-tag, stop by the firehouse on Minebrook Rd. any Monday night after 7:00pm or call the firehouse at 908.766.6625 and leave us a message indicating that you would like to receive a key-tag along with your name, address, and phone number. Choose-a-Charity is a brand-new program and the Bernardsville Fire Company is excited to participate in and promote their initiative. For now the number of participating retailers is limited. Look for the Choose-a-Charity logo to find out if your favorite store is signed up. If not, why not suggest to them that they do? | ||||
