SECTION 3
ACCOUNTS & PAYMENTS
|
Every student has an account which tracks amount due, payments, and funds raised.
|
SECTION 4
INDIVIDUAL FUNDRAISING
|
Individual fundraisers put money directly into your student account. Ads & Patrons are great individual fundraisers. Some students pay off their entire account using these.
|
MONTHLY INDIVIDUAL FUNDRAISERS
|
Monthly individual fundraisers will be going on all year. Proceeds from these go directly to your student account and will show up on your monthly statements as a credit. Usually 50%-60% of money turned in pays for the product, 40%-50% is profit to your account, but each fundraiser is slightly different.
|
SCRIP - YEAR-ROUND INDIVIDUAL FUNDRAISER
|
Scrip is an individual fundraiser that allows you to earn money for your choir account through your every day spending. Through Scrips, you order physical, reloadable, or eGift cards to places where you already spend money buying food, gas, clothing, etc. A percentage of each gift card purchased goes directly to your account. Follow instructions on the how to guide below to get started.

SECTION 5
GENERAL FUNDRAISERS
General Fundraisers benefit the entire organization rather than individual students. Amazon Smile and Kroger Community Rewards are two programs we use as general fundraisers. In both of these programs you shop like you normally do, and as long as you scan your Kroger card or shop through smile.amazon.com, a percentage of your money spent will go back to our organization automatically. It's super easy and costs you nothing! All you need to do is link your Kroger card to our organization, link your amazon smile account to our organization, and always be sure to shop at smile.amazon.com
