Redeemer Needs Your Help!
In order to provide our students with a
well-rounded education, Redeemer Lutheran School's
parents and friends support it through a variety of
fundraising opportunities. These fundraisers
provide money, not only for in-class activities,
but also for sporting events, drama productions,
field trips and computer equipment.
What follows are just a sample of the ways in
which you can take an active role in helping
us:

eScrip
Do you grocery shop? Eat at
restaurants? Purchase item at department
stores? Buy plants at nurseries?
How would you like to help Redeemer by
making everyday purchases at selected
merchants that you already
visit? Redeemer will receive up to to 10%
of your purchases at these merchants.
Unlike other scrip programs where one
must purchase certificates before visiting
merchants, eScrip is a hassle-free way for
Redeemer to realize these rewards.
Purchases are tracked through your grocery
loyalty cards, ATM cards, debit cards
and/or credit cards.
Simply sign up online
or download the enrollment
form and hand it into the
school office to get started earning money
for Redeemer.
To ensure Redeemer receives credit for
your purchases, please use the following
information when registering with
eScrip:
Group Name: Redeemer
Lutheran School
Group ID: 137104928

Gift Card Scrip
Support Redeemer Students By
Purchasing Gift Card Scrip!
If you're not familiar with "Gift Card
Scrip" here's the a brief overview of the
program:
- You fill out an order form and pay
"Redeemer Scrip" for the order (let's
say $10). You receive a gift card for a
specific retailer (let's say Starbucks)
that is worth $10. Pay $10 and get a
$10 Starbucks Card to use for your
purchases at Starbucks - that
simple.
- Redeemer benefits by receiving from
the retailers 2% to 25% of your total
order. (The percentage varies from
retailer to retailer.)
- Gift cards are available from many
of the most popular retailers where you
shop on a regular basis (like Safeway,
Chevron, Starbucks, See's Candies,
iTunes, Macy's, and many more).
- Making your purchases by using
these cards costs you nothing extra and
benefits Redeemer.
- In addition to your personal use,
these cards make great gifts! If you
own a business, consider purchasing
gift cards for your business through
Redeemer's Gift Card Scrip.
If you don't see a retailer that you
are looking for, go to GLScrip
website and click on Retailer
List to search the
participating retailers. If you want to
order from a retailer not already listed
on the order form, write it in on the
bottom of the order form and identify the
amount that you want to purchase.
To place an order, download and
complete the order
form, write a check payable to
"Redeemer Scrip" and turn in both items to
the church or school office. Orders are
placed monthly (except during the summer).
The monthly order deadline is the second
Tuesday of each month. Orders usually
arrive within 7-10 days. If you have a
large order ($1,500 or more), that needs
to be placed before the monthly deadline,
please contact us. We can place special
orders.

Box Tops for Education
Have you ever seen the Box Top for
Education logo on your box of cereal or
bag of chips? Originally only on General
Mills items, they now appear on many
different
products throughout the grocery
store shelves.
These little Box Tops can add up
quickly. Each one that is redeemed by
Redeemer School is worth 10¢ to
us.
All you need to do is cut the Box Tops
for Education logo off of the packages of
items you already buy and return them to
the school. Collection boxes are available
in each classroom and conveniently located
on the information table at the front of
the Fellowship Hall for Church members and
friends.
But the Box Tops program does not end
there. If you shop online, a online mall
with over 200
merchants has been set up so
that a portion of your purchases are
contributed back to Redeemer. Sign
up on the Box Tops for
Education web site and make purchases
through the merchant links provided on the
site. When enrolling in this program,
please make sure that you select Redeemer
Lutheran School.
For more information about these
programs, please visit the Box
Tops for Education
web site.

Campbell's Labels for Education
What could be better than a cup of hot
soup on a cold rainy day? What if that cup
of soup meant money for Redeemer
School?
Through the Campbell's Labels for
Education program, you can earn money for
Redeemer by saving labels, not only from
soup, but also from a wide
variety of products including
pasta sauces and salsa.
Depending on the product, simply by
saving the label from the can or bottle,
the UPC code or the products cap, and
returning it to the school, Redeemer
receives these benefits. Please follow the
instructions on the package and return the
item that is necessary. Collection boxes
are located in each classroom. Another
collection box for Church members and
friends is located on the information
table as you enter the Fellowship
Hall.

please visit the Campbell's
Labels for Education web
site.
