Holiday Shopping Showdown: Shop, Save, and Support St. Ann School!
-
Christmas is fast approaching — and with that comes shopping lists, wish lists, and plenty of opportunities to give. What if every purchase you made this season could give back to you and support St. Ann School at the same time?Welcome to our Scrip Holiday Shopping Showdown, running November 12 – December 12! It’s an easy way to get your holiday shopping done, save money on tuition, and help fund important school projects — all with purchases you already make every day.
What Is Scrip / Raise Right?
Scrip (now known as Raise Right) is an online gift card program that lets you purchase cards from hundreds of popular brands — like Kwik Trip, Amazon, Target, Walmart, and Starbucks — and use them just like you normally would.
When you buy a card through Raise Right, each purchase earns a rebate percentage from the retailer. Here’s where it gets exciting:
50% of your family’s rebate earnings go directly back to you as tuition credit!
The other 50% supports St. Ann School and this year will help fund classroom technology updates, additional security cameras on the playground, and new art room flooring - updates that directly benefit our students.Your tuition credit is automatically applied to your FACTS account twice per year — so every time you shop, you’re literally lowering your tuition bill. Last year we gave back over $7,000.00 in tuition credit to our families!
Why This Is Cool
Because it’s fundraising that pays you back.
You’re not selling wrapping paper or attending extra events — you’re buying groceries, gas, and holiday gifts you were already planning to get.Every Raise Right purchase helps fund our school while earning real savings for your family. That’s smart giving — for your home and your child’s education.
Why This Is Relevant
This program helps keep St. Ann School thriving while making Catholic education more affordable for families.
Each Raise Right purchase supports our mission and directly impacts students — and through the Holiday Shopping Showdown, it’s also a fun, schoolwide challenge!
Team Matchups: Who Will Win the Pizza Party?
We’re putting a little friendly competition into our giving! Each class is paired up with another to form a team. The team with the most Scrip sales by December 12 wins a Pizza Party on Wednesday, December 17!
Here are the matchups:
8th & 3rd Grade
Kindergarten & 4th Grade
