Welcome to Yellowhead Koinonia!

Wondering when we start? When is Christmas Break? Check out our Calendar.  Would you like one for the fridge? Stop by our office for a coloured laminated copy.

This fall our Junior and Senior High classes will be heading to Camp Nakuman for an overnight trip.  These two days will be spent team building and enjoying the great outdoors.  Please stay tuned for more information to come. 

We need people to help do some jobs outside and inside to keep our campus great.  Come join us!

Keep on the lookout for Parent Teacher Interview sign up coming soon.  Please save the dates - October 19th and October 20th.  

Welcome to FundScrip Gift Card Fundraising

Do you shop at Independent Grocer, Sobeys, Walmart, Canadian Tire, Home Hardware, A&W, Boston Pizza, Original Joe’s, McDonalds, Subway, The Chopped Leaf, Tim Hortons, Wendy’s, Mark’s, Warehouse One, Dollarama, Amazon.ca, Landmark Cinemas, Shoppers Drug Mart, Esso, Mobil, Petro Canada, Shell, or Best Western?…...and many more

...Then you can raise money for our school!

FundScrip is a (*new to us*) program where a percentage of the gift cards that you purchase is donated to YKCS. So at no cost to you, paying for your everyday purchases with gift cards bought through the FundScrip program financially supports our school.

This means that just by paying for your groceries and gas with gift cards you can easily generate $30 every month for YKCS - that's $360 a year! Again, it doesn't cost you anything extra. You don't have to change where you shop or what you buy.  Gift cards also make great gifts for friends and family!

Your everyday purchases add up to make a difference very quickly!

How do I participate?

•  Group Orders:  

Paper order forms will be sent home once a month.  The deadline for orders will be written on the order form and on our School calendar.  The first order deadline will be Wednesday, September 29th.  Send back your completed order form, along with cash or cheque to the school office.  Cheques should be made payable to YKCS.  You can also order online by following the directions below (if you order online you don’t have to submit the paper order form).

• Order and pay online

To sign up for an online account:

1. 1. Go to www.fundscrip.com
   2. Click on the green ‘Support A Group’ button
   3. Enter YKCS's invitation code: 2M42MP and then your personal details.  You’re now signed up to support our school
   4. Group orders can be placed and paid for online, in lieu of sending in the paper order form.  Just choose ‘Hold for pickup at YKCS’ at checkout for the shipping method.
   5. At any time, you can also purchase e-gift cards, reloadable cards, or have physical cards mailed directly to you (shipping cost applies).  You can place orders as often as you’d like, independent of any schedule.
   6. Payment options online are EFT (Electronic Fund Transfer) --quick and easy to set up, and Online Bill Payment (pay through your online banking institution)
      (We just ask that you not use a credit card, so that our school gets the maximum return possible from your order)

Please keep an eye out for more great fundraisers coming your way this year.  

Interested in volunteering on the fundraising committee?  We are looking for more people to join.  Time commitment is on average 2-3 hrs/month and is a great way to get involved and support the school.
