We now have Bakers, HyVee, and WalMart all supporting our programs!
If you shop at either HyVee or Walmart we are asking you to use Scrip cards instead of cash, check or debit card. If 100 of our families purchased a $100 Scrip card every week for a year our programs would earn $20,000 on those purchases alone! We place our orders on Monday. Both cards will be in your hands by Friday evening for your weekend shopping.
It doesn’t stop there. We offer a wide variety of Scrip cards to suit the needs of every family and every occasion. The cards also serve well as gifts.
If you shop at Bakers, you will simply use your Bakers Plus card. You will need to go to Baker’s website at www.bakersplus.com and follow the steps below:

Unfortunately, most of our society, community, parents and children are aware of the disturbing methods the internet is getting to our youth.

Obviously, there is probably more sites than just these. PLEASE help monitor all your kids internet usage no matter what age!!
Below is a link to click on of an example of what has been popping up. To include, this link has information on internet safety, cyber safety, screen time, parenting, digital parenting and social media.
