You Can Help Samaritan Inn When You Buy Groceries!

Check it out..............

For a six-week period, April 1 – May 9, 2008, Bruno’s/Food World customers shopping at select stores in the River Region will have an opportunity to donate to Samaritan Inn Ministries of the Montgomery Baptist Association. Signs will be posted in-store to indicate that Samaritan Inn Ministries is the selected benefactor.

Customers will be asked at check-out if they would like to donate. Paper golf balls imprinted with Samaritan Inn Ministries will be available and with a quick scan of a bar code a donation will be added to the customer’s total bill.

This year, one store in each of Bruno’s/Food World five districts raising the most money will be matched up to $5,000 by the Region’s Charity Foundation.

Bruno’s will host a check presentation ceremony in June (date tba).




The stores supporting Samaritan Inn Ministries are:

Food World 2020 East South Blvd., Montgomery,
Food World 4896 U.S. Hwy. 231, Wetumpka,
Food World 1860 East Main St., Prattville,
Food World 3543 Alabama Hwy.14, Millbrook

3. Tithe 1/10 of your garden and give to a family in need.

4. Read to a child at one of the public schools in your area. The administration would love to have you serve.


5. Start an Fellowship of Christian Athletes club at a local jr high or high school.

6. Take gift bags to new neighbors around your home or church with information about the church/community.

7. Adopt a school and be a prayer partner with them.
