Spring into action for local kids

Spring is the time for Family Service Association of Redlands Business Campaign. Have you contributed yet?

Barbara Garcia, manager of Capitalsource Bank’s Redlands brand and longtime Family Service supporter, is chairing the campaign this year. “I know that the last couple of years have been tough for local businesses,” said Garcia. “But supporting Family Service is not like supporting a national charity. The money you give to Family Service returns directly to our local economy, supporting the businesses that support us. We depend on the generosity of the business community to provide food, clothing and shelter to kids and families who need a hand up, not a hand out.”

Contributions to Family Service’s Business Campaign will be acknowledged in the Redlands Daily Facts as well as in the Family Times newsletter and other FSA publications, on FSA’s website and by email to the extensive email list. Contributions can be sent to Family service Association of Redlands, 612 Lawton Street, Redlands, CA 92374. Credit card donations can be made by calling Donna or Julie at (909) 793-2673.

Member to Member discounts …..available are you taking advantage?

Do you offer a discount to fellow Chamber Members? The Chamber has a Member to Member discount program that allows each of us to offer one another discounts on products and services and all we have to do is tell one another we are members of the Redlands Chamber of Commerce. As an example, check out the Chamber’s website, click on Membership, Heating and Air Conditioning and see what discounts are offered to Chamber members.

It’s easy to participate, just come up with an idea let the staff know and they will post it on the website and announce it to the membership. New members and renewing members get a catalogue of discounts available as soon as they join and or renew.
