Shop for a cause!

This Thanksgiving - and throughout the year - we want to encourage all Project supporters to do your grocery shopping with Randall's/Tom Thumb/Simon David and sign up for their Good Neighbor Program. 1 % of every purchase will be donated to Texas Advocacy Project! This can really add up to substantial, year round funding to the Project - all from an existing household expense.

To sign up for the Good Neighbor Program, simply pick up a Remarkable card at your local Randall's/Tom Thumb/Simon David and fill out the Good Neighbor Application. You will need Texas Advocacy Project's Good Neighbor account number: 458. (Please keep in mind Texas Advocacy Project is still listed as Womens Advocacy Project until Randalls releases their 2009 internal report.) And that's it! Every time you make a purchase remember to swipe your Remarkable card to ensure 1 % of your entire purchase is donated to the Project. If you would like to learn more, click here.
