Earn Your Chapter Double the Money with Shop2Care Through December 2

Shop2Care will give chapters $2 per person who registers and dowloads the Shop2Care browser app under your school name now through December 2! Alpha Phi Omega's partnership with Shop2Care is an easy way to earn money for your programs, especially for the next week.

Here's what your chapter needs to know:

  • Get as many people as possible to sign up and download the browser app by January 31, 2015, using the partner site here.
  • Each person who registers must do so under your chapter (using the school name in the drop down options) and they must complete the download for you to get credit.
  • Your chapter will earn $2 per person who completes the download now through December 2, 2014. (After December 2, the amount earned will return to $1 per person.)
  • The top three chapters who have the most people sign up and download the app will earn a bonus of up to $1,000.
  • Those who register can shop online as they normally would and have a rebate from their purchases go to charity.

This program is completely free and all you have to do is share the information and get brothers, friends and family to register and download the app!
