This fundraising proposal will be highly beneficial both to Camp Kidston and to your congregational members. When a congregation registers in the Lawtons/Camp Kidston Community Initiative, each member of your congregation will be invited to sign up for the program. For each member who signs up, Lawtons will make a $2 donation for every prescription that those members fill at Lawtons. In addition, participants will receive a gift card from Lawtons that authorizes them to receive a 5-10% discount on all non-drug related purchases at Lawtons Drug store.
