Raise Right is a St. Paul of the Cross Tuition Reduction Incentive Program (T.R.I.P.) and fundraiser that gives participating families the opportunity to earn tuition credit and also raise funds for our school. This is just another way to pay for everyday purchases using gift cards in place of cash, checks and credit cards.
Choose from over 300 of the country’s biggest brands — such as Whole Foods, Jewel, Walgreens, Starbucks, Subway, WalMart, Dunkin’ Donuts, Macy’s, Target, BP, Lowes, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Panera, Barnes & Noble, American Girl, CVS Pharmacy, iTunes and many, many more!!
How the Program Works
You purchase gift cards/certificates at a discount through the Raise Right App. The discounts range from 2% to 30% of the card’s face value and this percentage is the total profit. This year we are offering 80% of the profit to our school families in the form of a tuition credit. This credit accumulates in your account with each order placed and is given to the school twice a year to reduce your tuition bill. The other 20% of the profit, after deducting expenses, is given to the school as a donation for miscellaneous improvements.
Example:
You place an order and pay $200.00 for Jewel gift cards. Use the gift cards exactly like cash and buy $200.00 worth of groceries. Jewel offers a 4% discount, so the profit for this order is $8.00. Your family earns $6.40 as a tuition credit and $1.60 goes to the School T.R.I.P. account.
