Fundraising Programs
Please join us in these easy ways of raising money for St. Simon at no additional cost to you.
If you have any questions or need help signing up, please contact PROsorio@aol.com.
• Scrip
Scrip "gift certificates" will be made available at certain times (e.g. Christmas, Easter) throughout the year. St. Simon buys them from stores at a discount, and would like to sell them to you at face value! Includes: Starbucks, AppleTree, McDonald's, Chili's, Fresh Choice, Macy's and others.
Special Order Scrip: 200 more vendors, available through "Special Scrip," contribute between 1 and 15 percent to St. Simon. When the Special Scrip form comes home, you can place Scrip orders for stores that we do not carry in inventory, which usually arrive in about 10 days. There are dozens of stores, gas stations, restaurants, and catalogs available in various denominations. What a great and easy gift idea!
