  • HOPE/Scrip Fundraising
    HOPE/Scrip Fundraising

    This ongoing Holy Cross fundraiser costs you nothing extra. You simply buy gift cards for your favorite stores. They are just like any other gift card, but the great thing about them is Holy Cross gets to purchase them for less than their face value. You, in turn, purchase them at face value and the profit goes to Holy Cross! You may purchase HOPE during rectory hours and after all Masses.

    Register online at https://www.raiseright.com/
    Then, click "Family Sign Up" to create your scrip/HOPE account. Use Holy Cross' enrollment code LF9FA1LL2931. You're set to start shopping! I will receive notification of your order and prepare it. It can be picked up at the Rectory or after weekend masses. You can also order eScrip for a quicker turn around on most emailed "gift cards." Downloading the RaiseRight app is the most convenient way to participate in this program, as it allows you to maintain a virtual "wallet."

    *** Also be sure to link your Baker's Plus card to Holy Cross Church. Go to their website under the Community Rewards program to link your card. Every purchase you make will be linked to the HOPE program, providing us a $300+ quarterly bonus! We currently have 78 families signed up. https://www.bakersplus.com/i/community/community-rewards
