If you enjoy volunteering and have an American Express card, you can now get reward points with their membership rewards program. According to their website, you could earn 500 reward points for every hour of volunteer work. Earn up to 10,000 points for doing charity work per year as long as the project is listed in the VolunteerMatch.org database. You can enter your zip code or keyword to best match your volunteering hours.
Make sure you log in membership rewards to register your hours worked to earn your points. You could also donate your points to charity. Volunteering is a wonderful thing; earning extra points is just icing on the cake. It’s nice to hear a feel good story with American Express instead of credit card companies taking advantage of the consumers.
Top American Express Cards:
Blue Cash® from American Express is designed for those with good or excellent credit who plan to take advantage of the cash back rewards program. This card has no annual fee and an average rate for purchases and balance transfers (for those who qualify), which makes it ideal for those who plan to occasionally carry a balance. The card also has a 0% introductory rate for the first six months of membership that can be applied toward purchases.
The TrueEarnings® Card from Costco and American Express is designed for Costco members who have average credit and plan to take advantage of the cash back reward program. A 1% rebate is earned on general purchases, 2% is earned for travel-related purchases, and 3% is earned for restaurant and on gasoline purchases up to $3,000 (1% thereafter). There is no limit to the amount of cash rebates that can be earned. There is also no annual fee for this card with a paid Costco membership. This card also provides many common benefits and services.
