Seventy women attended our first annual Women’s Tea event. Testimonies by Sandy Koven and Cathe Jackson, as well as an inspirational message by Kristin Cummins were greatly enjoyed. The place settings were beautiful as well as the spirit among those in attendance. We praise the Lord that under Sunnie Regier’s leadership, over $4,300 was raised to benefit the HCS financial aid program for those who need assistance to be able to take advantage of the Christ-centered education of HCS.
Purchasing magazines online is possible at HCS. HCS has not opted to participate in a magazine sale with incentive prizes and contests associated with it. However, purchasing magazines through HCS is still possible so that your child’s school will benefit from the purchase. Purchasing magazines online minimizes door-to-door sales for students, does not set up unwelcome competition between both students and siblings. Often, the incentive prizes for the students greatly cut into the profit thus minimizing the positive benefits for the school overall. Effective fund raising does not focus on sales in which an outside vendor receives a sizeable portion of the cost to our parent. Direct donation appeals are more effective than a “sales” event. We provide for magazines to be purchased online for families and friends who want the magazines for their enjoyment and who wish to support HCS in this manner.
Those who desire to purchase magazines can simply go to the QSP link and order on line at any time.
Our goal is to focus on our annual fund program (Heritage Fund) and our other fundraising methods such as the annual auction and the scrip program.
