Fundraising

There are IC Schools Fundraising activities hosted throughout the year to raise funds for our schools. The tuition which covers only 60% of the cost for educating each students, the remainder is subsidized by our Ukrainian Catholic Parishes, Immaculate Conception Church and St. Josaphat Church, and through fundraising activities. We are not subsidized outside of our community, including the Archdiocese of Detroit nor the Eparchy of St. Nicholas in Chicago (to which we belong). Please support our volunteer-driven fundraising events conducted throughout the year.

On going 2010-2011 Fundraising  Events  :

 SCRIP Program

The SCRIP program is an ongoing fundraiser designated for capital improvements to the school facilities. The SCRIP program works by our families and supporters purchasing gift cards and certificated from a long list of participating retailers and restaurants. These cards can be used to make your daily purchases of food, gas, clothing and services. They are purchased at face value, however, the school acquires them at a discount (between 2% - 25%) which varies by participating company. For a full list of retailers go to www.glscrip.com.

Your continued support of the IC Schools is simple by using the lastest form posted on this website, or delivered to you  via the PTO pouches.  Simply choose the number of cards you would like and their value.  Please be careful when selecting your options; once ordered, the cards may not be returned.  All orders must be recieved by noon on Mondays if you wish to recieve your order the same week.  If you have questions please call  Stefanie Gulawsky, IC SCRIP parent coordinator for more information.
