SCRIP
The Great Lakes SCRIP (GLSC) offers an innovative approach for organizations seeking to raise funds...and all you have to do is shop at your favorite stores, eat at your favorite restaurants, and fill your car with gas with everyday gift cards that you buy from our school.
GLSC buys huge quantities of gift certificates directly from hundreds of merchants. Due to their volume purchase approach, they are able to secure these certificates at a fraction of their face value. GLSC then passes a portion of that savings on to C2E when you buy your gift cards through this program.
On-the-spot sales on Fridays - cards we always keep on hand - are on Fridays from 7:45 to 8:10 a.m. near the school library, during kindergarten car line, from 3:00 - 3:20 p.m. in car line and from 3:25 - 3:45 at the soccer field. We carry Wal Mart, Safeway, Kings, Sprouts, Starbucks. Contact us if you need cards at a different time.
Custom orders - cards from 500 popular retailers - are due to the main office by Monday, 8:30 a.m. They will be distributed during regular sales times. Check out our merchant list!
Order dates: Aug 30; Sept 13 & 27; Oct 11; Nov 1 &15 & 29; Dec 6; Jan 10 & 24; Feb 7 & 28; Mar 14 & 28; Apr 11 & 25; May 9 & 23.
WE CAN PUT IN A CUSTOM ORDER AT ANY TIME IF YOU HAVE AN ORDER LARGE ENOUGH TO COVER OUR SHIPPING COSTS. CONTACT US WITH YOUR SPECIAL REQUESTS!

Direct Giving
The Direct Giving Campaign is a fundraiser in which Families, Friends, businesses and community members can help us achieve our fundraising goals through tax deductible contributions. What makes this a unique fundraiser is that unlike others, Challenge to Excellence will receive 100 percent of monies that are donated through this campaign. Click here for the Direct Giving Campaign form.Cookie Dough Sales
This year we have teamed up with 360-fundraising and will be selling gourmet cookies, pretzels, and dessert rolls. In addition we will be selling discount cards to a few local restaurants. 360 fundraising will be giving us the best profit margin yet (at least 40%) so our potential to raise money is much larger than past fundraisers. The prizes are terrific as well. Any student that sells a combination of 15 items will be invited to a complimentary Hummer limo ride to a local pizzeria! There will also be daily participation prizes and even volunteers can be rewarded with cookies and Starbucks coupons. Below are the important dates to remember:
August 31st -- Pep rally & Order forms will go home with kids.
September 14th -- Order forms are due back to front office or teachers.
October 11th – Limo Lunch/ Cookies will be ready for pickup in the gym during afternoon
Car pool.
If you have any questions or would like to volunteer to help with this fundraiser, feel free to email me.
Thank you, Shayna Deferme

Box Tops is all about the difference 1 can make. This year, our goal is to raise $1,000 for school supplies and equipment. Here are five easy, everyday ways you can help:
Clip — Clip the Box Top from hundreds of participating products and send them to school. Each one is worth 10¢ when our school redeems them from Box Tops for Education.

Read — Buy books online through the Reading RoomSM, a partnership between Box Tops and Barnes and Noble. Our school receives up to 6% of qualifying purchases.
My Class Essentials™ –– This is a free online registry to help classrooms get the learning tools they need. Our school earns a 2% cash donation with every purchase.
