Fundraising Financial Commitment 

To keep tuition costs low, all families have a $500 fundraising requirement per family. 

*This can be rolled into your FACTS tuition payments to avoid fundraising or be paid in advance.

Each family has the following financial commitment: $500 per family


Please select 1 of 5 options below:


Option 1- Payment: Pay in full upfront or roll into monthly FACTS payments

  • Please do not give me any fundraising items. I will pay $500 in full.

Option 2- Package selection, which includes school-suggested fundraisers:

1. Candy- 4 boxes $120.00 ($30 credit per box, must sell 4 boxes of chocolates at $1/apiece and be billed by October 2026)

2. Opportunity Drawing- $200.00 (must sell a minimum of $200 or be billed in mid-December 2026)

3. Scrip – Earn $180.00 worth of credit by purchasing gift cards that can be used for everyday purchases, groceries, gas, dining, etc., now available online.  Please refer to https://www.raiseright.com/ to view Scrip percentages, as they vary. Credit to your account is based on the percentage returned to the school, NOT the dollar value of the Scrip purchased

  • I agree to sell all fundraising items by the deadlines.

Option 3- All Opportunity Raffle

I choose to sell $500.00 worth of raffle tickets ONLY

  • I agree to sell all Opportunity Raffle tickets by the deadline, or I will be billed $500.00 in Mid-December 2026.

Option 4- All Opportunity Raffle and Scrip

I choose to sell or purchase  $500.00 worth of Raffle and Scrip percentage credit.

  • I agree to sell all Opportunity Raffle tickets equalling $200 by the deadline, and I agree to purchase Scrip equaling $300 in percentage credit, or I will be billed $200.00 in December 2026.

Option 5-Year-round option to earn all $500 credit via SCRIP

I choose only to purchase Scrip, which equals $500.00 in percentage credit. 

  • I agree to purchase Scrip equaling $500.00 in percentage credit, or I will be billed $500.00 in mid-May 2027.


*Any Fundraiser Fees not accumulated and outstanding fines will be billed at the end of May. Invoices will be sent out. You can always pay out $500 in advance or in May 2027 or roll it into your yearly FACTS tuition payments to avoid fundraising. There are no rollovers to the following year’s tuition and fees. You may gift excess money accrued over $500 to another family.
