Unique Opportunity for Fundraising for Benjamin’s Van
A unique Opportunity for Fundraising for Benjamin’s Van
“Cash back with every purchase” ‘Together we are strong!” are the mottos.
With already thousands of local, regional and international merchants and millions of members in more than 40 countries, we now also have the opportunity to become part of this premiere global shopping community and loyalty program! Shoppers enjoy four ways to shop and earn cash back – online, in-store with their Cashback card, with merchant gift cards and via their smartphones.
This program is has ISO accreditation, as well as the European TUV.
Would you let us enroll you as a member?
There are benefits for yourself as well as for us and Benjamin. For starters you would have the satisfaction of helping Gary and I to raise money to buy a wheelchair accessible van for Benjamin. But secondly you would receive all the benefits associated with this membership shopping; 1-2 % cash back plus loyalty credits. Thirdly, our sponsor to this program will contribute a certain amount directly to the van fund for every member enrolled by us, up to 1000 members (one per household please).
By doing so and shopping through any of the above shopping methods, we will be sent ½ % of your shopping value that you spend at these merchants. For example, if you buy 4 Superstore gift cards worth $100, we would receive $2. I know this doesn’t seem like much but if 100 people enroll and do this amount of monthly shopping it adds up to $200. As you continue to shop as a member, the van we hope to get would soon be funded and any surplus would certainly help pay for some of the additional and ongoing expenses related to Benjamin’s situation. And all this at no extra cost to you. Everything is funded by the merchants who desire to establish loyal customers through this program.
We would love to enroll you as a member. There are no enrollment or annual fees, you don’t have to spend any extra money, just do your regular shopping through the program.
Remember! Cash back on every purchase for you, and together we can help support Benjamin!
Some of the popular stores are:
Your help in this way is much appreciated. It is simple to enroll, just fill in the following information and return it to us. We will do the rest of the enrollment process for you. More information is also available from us.

When we found out we were expecting twins seven years ago I never
expected the rollercoaster life would take us on. Benjamin was born 3 ½
months early and was soon diagnosed with cerebral palsy, chronic lung
disease, & a seizure disorder. Benjamin brings much joy to us.
Benjamin is a sweet boy with many challenges and throughout these
challenges he is always happy and has a
smile and a “hi” for everyone. Along with the joy comes the daily
challenges though. Right now my challenge is lifting Benjamin in and
out of the van and then also lifting his wheelchair in and out of the
van. Having a bad back already this has exasperated my bad back and is
starting to cause pain when I lift him. This is a constant struggle for
me, and I am afraid of what will happen as he continues to grow, because
as he grows, so does his medical equipment. A wheelchair van would be
life-changing for us! Having money to buy a wheelchair accessible van
would be a true blessing!
A wheelchair accessible van costs $63,000. Our goal is to raise around $30,000. I don't have the exact number yet as we are waiting on an exact amount from President's Choice Charity which I should have within the next two weeks. Once they have confirmed the amount of funding I can then apply to Variety the Children's Charity. I have also applied to Giving in Action but our request was denied as there is no more money in their account. We would also sell our van and have about $6000 to give ourselves as well.
