SCRIP
SCRIP is one of our easiest fundraisers! When you purchase
SCRIP, you're purchasing gift certificates and cards
that are used just like cash. You can use SCRIP to purchase
everyday expenses like food, clothing, and other essentials,
and with every purchase, you earn revenue for Holy Trinity!
Holy Trinity buys the SCRIP from Great Lakes Scrip
Center at a discount, and re-sells the certificates
for full face value. The discount from 2 to 15% - is
our profit, and counts toward your fundraising goal.
The more we all purchase and use SCRIP, the more Holy
Trinity can make.
SCRIP is a great fundraiser because you spend money
ONLY on items you are already going to purchase. Use
SCRIP for all your needs, whether you like crafting,
eating out, home repair projects, or just shopping,
we have the SCRIP cards for you.
SCRIP is available for purchase 5 days a week from
9-10:00 a.m. at school. In addition SCRIP orders
can be sent in to school with your child and the order
will be filled and sent home the same day! Use the form
below to select your giftcards.

EITC - Donate to HTS instead of paying your state
taxes
Through Pennsylvanias Educational Improvement
Tax Credit (EITC) program, a qualified business can
fund education rather than pay a percentage of its state
taxes. To do this, the business makes a gift, through
the EITC program, to an EITC-registered scholarship
organization or an EITC-registered education improvement
organization. The state Department of Community and
Economic Development (DCED) gives the business a tax
credit equal to a percentage of the businesss
contribution.
To learn more about this great opportunity to help
students through the gift of scholarships, please see
this page from the newpa.com website.

FUNDRAISING
POLICY
The Diocesan policy for funding elementary Catholic schools
calls for each school to have
fundraising activities to generate at least 12% of their total
operating budget. School parents are
expected to participate in these fundraising activities to
the best of their ability through monetary
donations, and purchases. Each family is responsible for meeting
a set amount called the
Fundraising Assessment. This assessment for 2009-2010
school year is $300.00 in profit. There
is a buyout fee of $400.00 due on October 1st. Any fundraising
amount not met will be added on to
the June tuition payment.
