Will be participating in the
COUPONING FOR COMMUNITY
campaign that starts this Sunday 5/8!
Couponing for Community is a nationwide event utilizing the power of couponing and social media to make a united impact for those in need.
This is where Saving and Giving Unite.
We invite you to join this community by using your couponing skills
to give to a homeless shelter, food pantry, or a friend in need during
the week of May 8-14!
The first thing that you need to do is to join in and “Like” the event facebook page and let them know that MyCouponExpert set you!

We all have a need to want to give to others and this is the perfect opportunity to just do it! The fun part will be posting photos of the items that you are donating (when possible) and logging in how many items you donated since they are keeping a tally of everything to see if we reach our goal across the nation.
What is the Goal?
This year we are setting a goal of 10,000 items donated
in one week’s time. We invite you to track your giving during the week
of May 8-14 and then come back to the facebook page to share your story. We’ll even
have a giving tracker to tally up everyone’s efforts!!
Why May 8-14?
We are the kind of people who find ways to give all year long. But we
have chosen to set aside one week each year to ‘flex our couponing
muscles’ for GOOD and show the impact we can have when we work together.
We also chose this week because May 14 is national Stamp out Hunger Day,
so giving can be as easy as putting a bag of non-perishable food items
out by your mailbox on Saturday, May 14.
Check with your local Post
Office to find out if they are participating at Stamp out Hunger.
If possible, please post under this on our facebook page if you know of any place that is accepting donations in your area with contact information.
Of course, it is also important to donate to individuals, family members or neighbors in need. I know of the following organizations in my area that would LOVE to have items donated to them:
Village View Community Church – 8585 SE 147th Place, Summerfield, FL 307-7303
First Step Food Bank – 412 NW 9th Street, Ocala, FL 732-5500
In His Steps Christian Ministries – 7048 Midway Terrace, Ocala, FL
Interfaith Emergency Services – 435 NW 2nd Street, Ocala, FL 629-8868
Lets do this people!
We can make a difference, I just know it!
WOOHOO!!!
