Great news for the new scrip year! If you are a Target shopper and have one of their REDcards (i.e., Target Visa Credit Card, Target Credit Card and/or Target Check/Debit Card) you can now earn scrip contribution credit for St. Theresa School!
The first step is to enroll your card(s) in Target’s “Take Charge of Education” program. You can do this by calling 1-800-316-6142, or by logging onto www.target.com, clicking on “redcards” in the top bar and then clicking on “Sign in or Enroll” along the left sidebar. From there you can designate St. Theresa School (ID# 3084) as the recipient of your contributions earned. I believe you can also apply for a REDcard online if you don’t already have one.
Once you have registered your card(s) in the program, I will need you to print out the verification that shows St. Theresa School designated and send it to me. Without this verification, I will not be able to start giving Target contribution credit.
In order for you to then get credit for contributions earned you must complete a spreadsheet which I will email to you UPON REQUEST. This is an Excel spreadsheet. You must have this sheet completed, and the appropriate back-up attached, in order to receive credit. “Appropriate back-up” means copies of the detail of your actual credit card statements from Target, or, in the case of their check/debit card I will need copies of ALL shopping receipts. Without this back-up, no credit can be given. There are six months covered on the current spreadsheet so you can complete and submit the information on whatever schedule works best for you (i.e., you can do it monthly or any variation up to the total of six months). I will have the next six month spreadsheet available later in the scrip year.
This program will start with “March” activity, meaning that the statement you receive in April and will probably pay in April will be the first one you record on the spreadsheet, under the month of March, and will be the first month recorded on your Family Scrip Report for the new scrip year.
Please remember that you need to contact me for the appropriate spreadsheet. When you do, please include the email address you would like me to use in sending the spreadsheet.
