Now an Easy Way to Help
Advance Housing has found an easy way for you to help us as we strive to help the most needy in our community.
Through an arrangement we have made with QSP, the Fund Raising Division of Reader's Digest and Time Inc., we are launching a Magazine Subscription Program.
It's simple and it will not cost you one penny more than you are currently spending.
By just renewing your current magazines through Advance Housing or ordering new ones, 40% of all costs will be returned as a donation to Advance Housing. The money raised by these efforts will help us with the provision of services for all of our consumers.
Ordering is easy. Just CLICK HERE and you will enter the Advance Housing Inc.'s Magazine Store. You can EXTEND, RENEW or ORDER any of the 700 magazines listed.
We have also included hundreds of CDs and BOOKS at reduced prices. These purchases will also return 40% to Advance Housing.
If you are renewing a magazine you do not have to wait for your current subscription to end. Just check the renewal box and write your name and address exactly as it appears on your current issue and your subscription will be extended.
ALSO, REMEMBER MAGAZINES MAKE GREAT GIFTS!
Online shopping is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!
Thank you for your support!
Sincerely,
Nancy Storey
