SVdP Spirit Shop – Winter Campaign
SVdP Spirit Shop is open for ordering! Don’t miss out on your opportunity to purchase your spirit gear and show your support for our wonderful school. Order by Tuesday, November 20th and orders will be delivered to your student via kid mail. Ordering spirit gear is only available during the specified campaign deadlines. The next ordering period will not be until March 2019.
Not only can you wear your new SVdP shirt or sweatshirt around town, but Sister has approved days throughout the year where students will have an out of uniform day if they wear their SVdP spirit gear. You will get your gear in time for the December Spirit Gear Day!
Shopping for clothes has never been so easy, and 15% of sales will go back to our school. To order, click here http://shop.bornfit.com/categories/merchandising-partners/st-vincent-de-paul.html. Please note when ordering on the website, you will have to fill out the shipping section but your purchase will be delivered to school and delivered to your student.
Jamba Juice
Jamba Juice ordering now has more flexibility. You can either continue to place a one time order for the whole trimester, OR order anytime up to two weeks in advance throughout the trimester. (For example, if you’d like Jamba Juice November 27th, your order needs to be in by November 12th and if you’d like Jamba Juice December 4th, your order needs to be in November 19th, etc.) It is our hope that this change in ordering availability encourages even more participation in this valuable SVdP fundraiser. You can begin ordering NOW at https://secure.boonli.com/login. Please email Kay Watson (kmclean_max@yahoo.com) with any questions.
