Fundraisers

Our parish school is indebted to the parish for its support, but that support and the school tuition cannot carry the load alone, so we have a few major fundraisers:

• A Knight to Remember is an annual event that includes dinner, a silent auction, and tricky tray. This year, we are upscaling this event with a sit-down dinner, music and dancing, and an open bar. More importantly, we are taking this opportunity to honor various members of the parish community who have contributed to our school, our parish, and our community!
• Scholar Patron / Business Partners are businesses or other patrons who want to partner with our school in its mission to raise faithful, honest, future citizens by offering financial support. There are four levels of partnership: Gold, Silver, Bronze, and Guardian Angel. The benefits that you receive for your donation are outlined in the Scholar Patron/Business Partner Plan
• Scrip Fundraiser Program is a win-win way to support our school when you buy gift cards for any of over 750 retail stores and restaurants. 
• New! Partnership with Carella's Chocolates & Gifts is another win-win: Ten percent of all online (carellaschocolates.com) sales and in-store sales will be directed back to Our Lady of Sorrows School when you or your family or friends shop at Carella’s or at carellaschocolates.com. Online, simple scroll down at click the Fundraising button, then
  begin shopping. Click the “Our Lady of Sorrows” button at checkout to ensure support is directed to our School. You can easily shop online and arrange for in-store pick up.

If you have questions while shopping in the store, please feel free to ask for Susan Carella or contact her via email at cndyncrds@aol.com.
• Cash Calendars cost $25 for a six-month calendar (January through June). Each day has a different dollar value. Each week, 7 lucky winners will be randomly selected to receive the corresponding amount on the calendar for that week. If your name is drawn, your entry goes right back in and is elegible to be drawn again for another day in that same week! So for $25, you get 182 chances to win, with the minimum prize being $20. In the end, total prizes will amount to $4,900!
• Box Tops for Education program: Buy participating products and use the Box Tops mobile app to scan your store receipt. The app identifies eligible products and automatically adds Box Tops to your school's earnings online. Even if you’re shopping online or doing grocery pickup, you can still submit your e-receipts and earn Box Tops. Twice a year, our school gets a check!
