For Christian colleges and universities their is a daunting task of trying to stay in keeping with the current and the latest technologies as well as keeping tuition prices in check. More and more students are opting in for local state universities for the shear reason, they can't afford the education that a private Christian school costs. The answer is profoundly simple and yet challenging, help the student find a scholarship. And as a Christian College or University you are always on the lookout for a new foundation that will help students get the education they deserve and need. But monies these days are tight and foundations are looking for methods to increase the funds that they are able to make available to schools like yourself.
So what if a foundation or alumni group could find a fundraising mechanism that wouldn't tax their discrectionary income but yet provide monthly revenues for their old alma matter?
Locker 81 provides an answer and a solution with their SMART GIVING Program.
In this program foundation members, alumni, and the student body can continually generate funds for your college or university by simply using a school-sponsored SMART GIVING VISA DEBIT CARD to make their regular everyday purchases.
When a purchase is made by a cardholder with a SMART GIVING VISA DEBIT CARD
a percentage of the merchant processing fees that are paid to VISA by the merchant are redirected to a foundation or school sponsored program.
In other words, the normal giving patterns of your school supporters are un-affected because the funds that are generated, come from the regular cost-of-doing-business processing fees paid by a merchant. So now monies that your supporters regularly spend for gas and groceries can now create funds for your schools needs, designated projects or scholarships.
So think of it, your school's educational projects and even monthly support needed to pay teacher salaries can now be funded through the SMART GIVING Program. And because the SMART GIVING VISA DEBIT CARD continues to be used year-round by the cardholder,
monthly revenues are generated for the school year round.
For more information about how the SMART GIVING Program works we invite you to take a TOUR of the program.
