Thank you to all the parents who volunteer at St. Michael's Academy. May God bless your efforts and contributions. Are you aware of the year-round programs and fundraisers in which St. Michael's Academy is involved? For your reference, here is an index:
$CRIP: This is a very important and easy year-round fundraiser that doubles the dollars without spending a penny more than you already do for gas, groceries, etc. $crip can be purchased from the Parish Secretary or Accounting office during regular business hours (8-4) or after Sunday morning Masses.
American Express to be discontinued the Scrip Program has discontinued the American Express Gift Cards. We do have some in our inventory and they will only be available while supplies last.
TAX BENEFIT: Did you hear the good news? The IRS has ruled that those who participate in the scrip program can now get a tax deduction. Here's how it works: you buy scrip and whatever rebate amount is generated from that scrip purchase can now be deducted from your taxes. Purchase a lot of scrip with high rebates and be able to have a sizeable charitable contribution at the end of the year. Please see Tim Drahman or Anne Marie Netzel for more information.
ACADEMY AUCTION: Date for next year is Saturday, April 30, 2011.
5% BACK TO SCHOOLS PROGRAM: Use our Academy ID number 70121586 every time you shop at Office Depot. 5% of your purchase goes directly to St. Michael's Academy to get free supplies.
BOXTOPS FOR EDUCATION: Collect from General Mills products year-round to earn cash for the school. www.boxtops4education.com
ETCEP: collect empty laser & inkjet printer cartridges (NO re-manufactured cartridges, please) and old cell phones to earn points that are then exchanged for new computer technology for our classrooms. www.etcep.com.
The drop-off location for the year-round collection items is at the bottom of the main staircase. You may also drop off box tops in the School/Parish Secretary’s Office.
