Fall Book Fair

A huge thank you to all of the school families who supported our recent Fall Book Fair. As you know, we far surpassed our goal of $9,100, with over $10,000 in sales - our most successful fair EVER.  We would like to recognize and sincerely thank the following:

• Kathy Kokkinos and Christine Shaw who coordinated the fair.
• To all of the many volunteers who helped with set up and take down, who manned the registers, and who assisted students and school families throughout the sale.  
• To our school families who supported the fair (and our school library) with your purchases and generosity.  

 

As noted in the weekly reminders, all students have earned and will enjoy an out of uniform day on Tuesday, October 15 (the day after the Columbus Day holiday).   Bravo, ASCA!!!

 

All Saints Collects Box Tops for Education and Pop Tabs for Ronald McDonald House

St Therese Plaza Paver Brick Program

Recognize your student or school family by purchasing a brick as part of our St Therese Plaza Paver Brick Program.  

We want to let our new ASCA families know – and remind returning ASCA families - of the opportunity to have a personalized paver brick honor your family, student or event and create a lasting family legacy here at All Saints.  Many inscribed bricks are already installed in our beautiful St. Therese, The Little Flower, Plaza outside Door 1, and we welcome new additions!

You can make a donation to sponsor a Paver Brick to commemorate any occasion in the course of the school year, or to honor a special student, teacher or coach!  This is also a great way to memorialize a loved one, or to celebrate a birthday or anniversary with a gift that will last a lifetime.
The donation options to sponsor a Paver Brick are $175 (6” by 6”), $250 (6” by 12”) or $500 (12” by 12”), and donors receive written thanks for their charitable donations.  Also, please note that there are many religious and other icons available to enrich the message and appearance of paver bricks.

Illinois Tax Credit Scholarship Program

 

Last year, the State of Illinois created a new way to fund scholarships for children who choose to attend Catholic schools through the “Invest in Kids Act.”   Under the IllinoisTax Credit Scholarship Program and the “Invest in Kids Act”, individuals and corporations make donations to Scholarship Granting Organizations (SGO) that distribute scholarships to qualified students.

 

You can designate your contribution to support a student attending All Saints Catholic Academy, and receive a 75% credit on your state of Illinois tax liability.  Remember that a tax credit is a dollar for dollar reduction of your tax liability.  For example, if you donate $1,000 under the Tax Credit Scholarship Program, you will receive a tax credit equal to 75% of your donation, or $750.   

 

Yes, this is For Real.  

 

• The tax credit is a dollar for dollar reduction of the amount a tax that an individual or corporation owes to the State of Illinois. 
• Donors will be able to designate their donation to an individual school - All Saints Catholic Academy.

 

Why pay money to the State of Illinois, when those monies can help a child at All Saints Catholic Academy.  

 

If you would like more information on how to donate to the Illinois Tax Credit Scholarship Program, please click here.  

 

Please click here for more information on 2018-2019 fundraising at All Saints Catholic Academy.   Remember that all families are responsible for their FFO ($250 for preschool only families; $500 for K-8 families).  We encourage you to take advantage of each fundraiser that is offered.

The Annual Fund Appeal is an opportunity for ASCA supporters to contribute to the school. This program provides funds for school budget needs in areas such as staff development, technology and program enhancement. Many of our donors’ employers provide matching gifts to increase overall Annual Fund receipts. The Annual Fund Appeal will begin in November and conclude during Catholic Schools Week in February; however, your donation is greatly appreciated in any amount at any time.   

Your check payable to “ASCA Annual Fund” can be dropped off at, or mailed to, to the school office.  It will help us to accurately record your gift if you use the ASCA Annual Fund Reply Card.

If you prefer to donate on-line, you can use the Annual Fund Appeal “Click ‘n Pledge” screen here.

We are grateful for all your interest and support!

Many of our supporters have benefited from a Catholic education as they were growing up, and others have heard of All Saints from family or friends. If you would like to make a gift to help a child attend All Saints Catholic Academy who might otherwise not be able to, your donation can be directed to General Scholarship, or to one of three specific funds:

• “Change A Life Fund” primarily benefits lower-income Latino students from nearby communities;
• “Faith in Their Future Fund” benefits students from families in need who reside in our founding Naperville parishes;
• “Betsy Stiff Memorial Fund” benefits students with mental or physical challenges.

 Our “All Are Welcome!” Scholarships Brochure further explains how you might help by "adopting a student."  If you prefer to donate on-line, you can use our website’s “Click ‘n Pledge” payment option for Scholarship.

Thank you for considering a general donation to All Saints Catholic Academy. You may send a check to ASCA, 1155 Aurora Avenue, Naperville, IL 60540. If a credit card online donation is more convenient, we use the “Click ‘n Pledge” service to provide secure processing of your credit card donations. We welcome your donation to our ASCA Future Fund using this service.

SCRIP is a convenient and powerful fundraising program which earns money for the school, helps school families satisfy their Family Fundraising Obligation, and can even generate future year's tuition credit through the purchase of gift cards/certificates to establishments where the buyer is already shopping anyway!

These gift cards and certificates carry full purchasing power and generate revenue for our school families which range from 4% or 5% (Mariano's, Jewel, Koh's, JCPenney) to 10% and higher (Macy's, Gap, Lands' End)!
