Ways to Contribute

Find information below about each of the additional opportunities you can take advantage of and help raise money for SPPCS.
Can Recycling
Save all your aluminum cans and bring them to the recycling bins at the back of school. SPPCS keeps the profits of the recycling.
Paper Recycling
Gather all those newspapers and bring them to the containers at the back of school. But don't stop there!! You can drop in magazines, junk mail, etc., too.
Printer Cartridges
Now that so many families have computers and printers in their home, many have printer cartridges that are just thrown away. Please consider sending them into school for recycling.
Education 1st!
A special thank you to all who have donated in the past to our annual campaign for SPPCS! This annual drive enables our school to purchase items above and beyond what we would otherwise be able to do. In the past this money was used to initially purchase the computers for our computer lab, purchase our mobile lab and Smartboard, and purchase a new computer for every classroom.
Remember that all donations go directly to our school. Contact the school office for more information.
Target Charge Card
If you shop at Target frequently, consider applying for a a Target REDcard (a Target® Visa® or Target® Card issued by Target National Bank, an affiliate of Target Stores). Designate STS PETER AND PAUL SCHOOL (School ID #17816) as the recipient. Target will donate 1% of your purchases at Target and Target.com and 1/2% of purchases made elsewhere with your Target® Visa®. You can even use Target's website to check our school's progress. Just enter the school id and click on the Search button.
French Toast "Dollars for Uniforms"
If you purchase French Toast brand uniforms and shop at their web site, the company will donate 5% of sales to SPPS. We're an enrolled school, and our "school dress code" is school dress code QS45MTD. Make sure you fill it in when you complete your order.
Gold Rush Raffle
The Gold Rush Raffle is a tremendous way to support the school by purchasing a $100 ticket. Tickets can be purchased by one or many individuals. The grand prize ticket is drawn at the Holy Name Trivia night in October. The proceeds of the raffle benefit the parish and school equally.
Grocery Product Labels
Saints Peter & Paul School participates in several programs that reward schools for the number of labels collected and returned. Each month the box tops and labels are collected from the classrooms. The class with the most collected for that month will get a special treat.
| Program Name | Products | What to Clip | Reward Obtained |
|---|---|---|---|
| Campbell's Labels for Education | Campbell's soups, Franco-American, Peppridge Farm, Swanson, Market Day, V8 beverages, Prego pasta sauces. | You no longer need to clip the entire label – just the UPC code itself. | Educational equipment |
| Tyson's Project A+ | Many of Tyson's frozen food products and deli meats carry the Project A+ label. | Cut on dotted line and send in entire panel. | Cash (24 cents for each label). |
| General Mills' Box Tops for Education | Click here to see a list of all products. | Cut on dotted line and send in trimmed box top only. | Cash (depends on box top value). |
Please note that the volunteers who collect and submit the labels are appreciative of everyone's efforts. If you could spend just a short amount of time trimming the UPC code or label to the dotted lines, it would save the volunteers a lot of time before sending them in. Also, please take a minute to cut around the dotted line on the box tops and separate box tops from the labels in two separate envelopes or bags. Thanks for your help!
Schnucks eScrip Community Cards

Pick up your card today, and start contributing to our school by just grocery shopping!
Scrip Cards
The Scrip Card program has been successful at SPPCS. Gift cards to various retailers in the Waterloo and St. Louis areas are available to purchase through the Scrip Program. When purchasing a card, the merchants donate a percent to our school. Take advantage of local restaurants that are available "on hand" through the school office. McDonalds, Schneider's Meats, Applebee's are just to name a few. Up to 5% of the gift card is free money for us. Kohl's allows you to pay your charge with scrip certificates. Order forms are available outside the school office and on the SPPCS website. Orders received on Monday, before the end of school, will be available to you by Friday afternoon. Did you know that all your scrip purchases benefit both you and SPPCS! For each of your script purchases 25% of the profit earned will be credited to your next year's registration fees! (The credit is limited to $350 per child). Here is how it works: You buy script with a value of $200 and a contribution value of 8%. The total profit on your purchase is $16. The profit would be divided $12 to SPPCS and $4 toward your family's 2011 fees. The more you buy, the more both you and SPPCS benefit. If you have any questions, please contact Kit Foster through fast direct.
Spirit Shop
SPPCS Spirit Shop offers special Falcon Wear items to order. Polos, Sweatshirts, hoodies, duffel bags, hats, blankets,etc. are available to purchase with your choice of logo. Check out the school website for order forms. These make great Christmas gifts...order early!
SPPCS Attic
As quickly as children grow, keeping them in new school uniforms can become costly. The SPPCS Attic (formerly the SPPCS Uniform Resale Shop) helps to offset those costs by allowing parents to exchange or donate uniforms.
Please follow these guidelines:
The SPPCS Attic is located in the Wee Little Saints Building Attic. Any items for the resale shop may be dropped off on the porch in the marked covered container. Please make sure your bags are marked "resale shop" on the outside. Also, please include your name on the inside of the bag with the number of items so that a credit can be added to your account.
Butter Braids
As a way to generate additional income for the school, Butter Braids and Cookie Dough sales are a successful fundraiser and will continue in the Fall of each school year. Look forward to easy baking just before Christmas. Contact Kerry Brinkman for more information.
