I'm pleased to announce that our fund-raising scheme FundScrip is now up and running.
What is FundScrip? It's a means of fund-raising by buying, through our members, a gift card from one of the member retailers (Ex: IGA, Super C, Canadian Tire....). FundScrip will reimburse Team Kili-2012 with a percentage of the price of the card.
You are invited to look up the complete list of retailers at this link:
http://www.fundscrip.com/Détaillants/liste_des_detaillants.aspx
So, how exactly does it work?
Easy!
Choose the retailer or retailers who interest you on the above list. Then order your cards from a member of our team. We'll fetch your cards and get them back to you. As we pick them up on Mondays, we need to have your orders by the preceding Thursday.
A percentage of the amount you pay will be deposited in our account by FundScrip.
Let's look at a concrete example:
Isabelle is a member of Team Kili-2012. Her Aunt Gertrude gives her $100 to get her a gift card from IGA. Isabelle orders the card from the designated person in the team. The following Monday this person fetches a gift card worth $100 from IGA, gives it to Isabelle who passes in on to her Aunt. As IGA offers 3%, FundScrip then deposits $3 in the Team Kili-2012 account. The same procedure is then repeated every week.
So now you and your family and friends can start ordering cards for your everyday shopping or for larger purchases.
It's a simple and easy way to support the Kili-2012 project.
We can also get recurrent cards if that suits you better. For instance, if you always shop at Maxi's, we can get a recurrent card for the amount you choose.

Please ask a member of the team if you have any questions about the scheme.
