I'm thinking ahead about gasoline for the convention.
Around our home, the Kwik Trip chain serves MN, IA, and WI. They are well
regarded in part because they offer a fundraising opportunity to charitable
groups and churches. Basically, gift cards are bought at 97% of face value,
then sold at face value. The nonprofs keep the difference.
Our trip to/from the convention will take us through Illinois, Missouri,
Arkansas, and Tennessee. Those of you living in those states: Does your
congregation, parish, or synagogue sell "scrip"? Is there a regional chain
that offers a similar charitable program to what I have described?
What I'm hoping for here is that someone will identify a brand or chain
serving IL/MO/AR/TN, and assist me with purchasing gas cards in a way that
will benefit a worthy congregation or group. I figure I gotta pay for gas
anyway, might as well do some good if possible.
TIA for any help or advice.
