You can help raise money for MTCS 

without spending any extra!

    Middle Tennessee Christian School must raise about $700,000 each year.  These funds are needed to help with operational expenses, to purchase new equipment and supplies, and to maintain facilities and grounds.

    We rely on MTCS supporters like you to help raise this amount.  Through your generous support of our Fall Festival, Steak Dinner, Spaghetti Supper, Magazine Sale, and other fundraisers, we are able to meet our financial responsibilities.

    To encourage everyone to raise money for MTCS, there are several programs in place.  And, these programs don't cost you a dime!  These programs are easy and designed to be used by parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and friends of MTCS.  

    For more information on any of these programs, contact Adam Coggin (acoggin@mtcscougars.org) at 615-893-0602.

 

Scrip Program

 The MTCS Scrip Program allows our school to earn money from gift certificates you order.  

  • Order gift certificates, or scrip, for restaurants and stores where you already shop.

  • Order forms and money must be received in the business office by 10 a.m. every Monday. 

  • Your scrip will be available in the Business Office starting at 2:00 p.m. on Monday of the next week.

  • Scrip is sold to MTCS at a discount and resold to you for face value. MTCS will make 2-25% of each gift certificate’s denomination ordered.

  • Scrip is an actual gift certificate or card from the retailer. Rules for the scrip depend on the retailer.

For more information on the Scrip program, contact Adam Coggin in the Development Office at 615-893-0602. 

 

Kroger Cares

Let 4% of your Kroger grocery and pharmacy bill benefit MTCS. Our school receives 4% of all items purchased with the Kroger Gift Card.  Here's how it works.

  • Purchase a Kroger Gift Card that is coded to identify our school's account from the MTCS business office (cards are sold throughout the year).  Cost of the card is $5.00 and can be loaded up to $500.00.  (Order Form)

  • You can add value to, or "recharge," up to $500 on your Kroger Gift Card at Customer Service or at the register by paying with cash, check, or charge.  (Many people put their monthly grocery money on the card at one time to help eliminate overspending.)

  • If you recharge at the register, you must do so before the cashier begins scanning your items.

  • The Kroger Gift Card is a debit card and can be used at any Kroger store and Kroger Pharmacy in the country.  It can now be used to pay for gasoline as well. (It is great for grandparents, aunts and uncles, and friends to help MTCS.  Think about the card for gifts, stocking stuffers, emergency milk and bread runs, etc.)

  • Your remaining balance on the Gift Card will be printed on your receipt.

  • Every time our supporters collectively spend $5000, Kroger sends MTCS a check.

If 300 families spend $150 a week on their Kroger Gift Card, MTCS will get $93,600 a year!  You spend no more than you are already spending for food and other items.  Kroger is making the donation, not you.  Let's go Krogering for MTCS!

 

Fast Fixin' Home Team School Rewards

We are introducing a new fundraising program sponsored by Fast Fixin' -- a line of fully cooked chicken and beef products found in your grocer's freezer.  The Fast Fixin' Home Team School Rewards program makes it easy for us to raise as much as $5,000 a year for our school.  All we have to do is clip and save Home Team logos from the back of specially marked bags of Fast Fixin' products. Fast Fixin' will redeem them for 30 cents per logo.  Click here for eligible products.   For more information, contact Lisa Richardson (lisarichardson@mtcscougars.org) at 893-0601.

 

Staples Recycle for Education

Staples will donate $3.00 for each empty ink cartridge or toner cartridge turned in for recycling.  A box is set up in front of the elementary office.  

 

Other Ways to Help

Tyson Project A+:  Clip and save Project A+ redemption panels from Tyson boxes.  Each panel we collect is worth 24˘ for our school!  Drop off Tyson Project A+ redemption panels at the collection center outside the elementary office.

General Mills Box Tops for Education:  Box tops can be found on General Mills cereals, Yoplait yogurts, Betty Crocker products and more.  Bring the General Mills Box Tops for Education symbols to the collection center outside of the elementary office.  General Mills will give MTCS 10˘ for each box top.

Campbell's Labels for Education:  Remove labels from Campbell's Soups, Franco-American, Pace Sauces, Pepperidge Farm, Prego Sauces, Sanson and V8 products.  Take them to the collection center outside the elementary office.  MTCS can purchase equipment from points accumulated from your proof of purchase.  Click here for eligible products and new instructions for clipping proofs.

Schoolpop.com:  Visit www.schoolpop.com when making purchases online.  You can register with MTCS and shop at tons of popular online stores.  Schoolpop rebates a percentage of your sales to the school.  It's another great way for everyday shopping to benefit MTCS.

 

Thank you for your continued support of our school!
