FundraisingDear SAS Families,
Thank you to all the members of the Auction committee and especially Dawn & Mark Czepiel for all their hard work and dedication to make this year's Auction such a wonderful and successful night for our school. The church hall looked amazing and transported everyone to a warm beach. We are finalizing the numbers and will let you know how much we were able to raise shortly. Please continue to send in your recipes for the cookbook. Please continue to support our Scrip program especially throughout the year.
We have started working on the Italian Festival which is scheduled for June 9-12th on the church grounds. The raffle tickets will be sent home soon. Please do your best to sell the books. Helpers are needed for all the food booths, school booth and other areas. Sign up sheets will be sent home, this is the final event to earn Spirit hours for 2009-2010 school year.
Thank you to all the families that participated in the Fall Fundraiser. Total sales were just over $15,500 with a profit of approximately $6200. As a reminder:
This year's St. Anthony School Golf tournament was held on Monday, Oct 5th at Chippanee Golf Club in Bristol. Thank you to the committee for a wonderful day and all of our golfers and sponsors. We were able to raise $3400 for the school.
We also continue to sell Scrip cards through school folders and at weekend masses.
What Is Scrip?
Scrip is a term that means substitute money . When you purchase scrip, you re purchasing negotiable gift certificates and prepaid cards that are used just like cash. You can use scrip to purchase everyday expenses like food, clothing, and other essentials, and with every purchase, you earn revenue for our organization.
How scrip generates revenue for you
The Great Lakes Scrip Center acts on behalf of churches, schools and other non 'profit organizations to purchase large amounts of scrip from grocery stores, department stores, and other retailers. Because the scrip is purchased with cash up front, the participating retailers offer a substantial discount. Our organization buys the scrip from Great Lakes Scrip Center at a discount, and re-sells the certificates to families like yours for full face value. The discount ' from two to fifteen percent or more " is our organization s revenue.
Ask your scrip coordinator listed below for the latest participating retailer list or visit www.glscrip.comto download the complete list. Then put your shopping dollars to work for St. Anthony s School! We also have the Scrip information and order forms in downloads below. Our Scrip school code is 73F13B341238L.
