Have you checked out E-Scrip.com? It’s one of the ways folks can support LIFT when they shop for groceries, dine out, or make purchases online. When you sign up at http://www.escrip.com, simply indicate the group name “LIFT Renewal Ministriesâ€?, and Group # 500015519. Then register your Vons grocery card, as well as your various credit and debit cards (all through a very secure site). Each time you shop at a participating store or hundreds of online merchants listed on eScrip’s site, they will contribute a percentage of your purchase to LIFT! It’s that simple and LIFT gets a “liftâ€? as you go about your regular shopping. Check out the e-Scrip Dining list, too, to see a list of the dozens of participating local restaurants - when you pay with your registered card, LIFT receives a percentage. How cool is that?
