What is a Raise Right?

A Raise Right card is a gift card you purchase for a retailer that helps to support St. James School.  You purchase a gift card at face value and the school receives a rebate in the amount of 2-16% (based on retailer) of the card amount.  This is a year round fundraiser for SJS and more that 700 retail locations are available to choose from!  

Raise Right Card Order Form

HOW TO PLACE AN ORDER:

Using the Paper Order Form:

To place an order using the paper Raise Right card order form, print and fill out your order form off this page.  Ensure you fill in all fields completely and include the student’s name and homeroom you want your cards to be sent home with and a good contact number in case we need to reach you.  When two card amounts are listed on the same line, circle the denomination you want to purchase.  Send the completed order form and either cash or a check made out to St. James School for the full amount of your order by the order deadline. 

 Placing a Raise Right Card order online:

Online ordering gives you access to hundreds of e-cards in addition to the physical gift cards available on the order form and website.  St. James offers presto pay feature enabled (allowing you to pay and receive e-cards immediately), you may still place your order for both physical and e-cards online.  Once payment is received at the school (cash or check) your order will be released (on the next scheduled order date). Or you can pay with a debit or credit card linked to your Raise Right account. An email will notify you that your e-card order is ready.  Simply log in to your Raise Right account and print or scan in store!  If you ordered physical gift cards they will be shipped to the school and sent home with your child.
