The Calendar Raffle

This fundraiser is held in February. Starting in December, families begin selling raffle tickets for $10. In February, when the raffle is held, each day of the entire month a raffle ticket is drawn with daily prizes ranging from $100 to $1,000. This past year we raised $8,000 in profits from this fundraiser.

Scrip- The Fundraiser that Pays You Back

Spectrum has been using the Scrip program for over three years now and has raised over $15,000 for the school. Scrip is a program designed to earn money towards your child’s tuition. Retailers nationwide sell scrip to us in the form of gift certificates, gift cards, and vouchers. Families and friends of Spectrum purchase scrip at face value, earning a percentage of profit toward tuition.
It is a way to reduce your child’s education expense, while at the same time helping to raise money for Spectrum School.

Cell Phone and Cartridge Collection

Do you have old cell phones sitting around the house that you don’t really know what to do with? Don’t throw them away. Save them! Spectrum is collecting them through a program that will pay us for them. This is a great way to help Spectrum raise money with very little effort on anyone’s part. Ask at your workplace and check with friends and family. All makes and models are accepted.
We also collect used printer cartridges - laser and inkjet! Start saving them at home and, most importantly, contact your company for their old cartridges. Imagine how many cartridges realtors, banks, hospitals, clinics and hotels must go through each month! Please ask them to save them for Spectrum. If you are hesitant to contact your company, please call us at 877-1600.

For more information on these and other programs, please contact Deanna Mershon, Admissions and Advancement Coordinator at 815-877-1600 or  d.mershon@spectrumschool.org
