FUNDRAISERS
Incarnation depends upon money raised by our Home & School Association to fund special needs the school has. We realize that as a parent you may not be able to participate in every fundraiser. It is our goal to provide a variety of fundraisers in hopes that you will find something to support which suits you and your family.
2009-2010 FUNDRAISERS
Cash4Class (September 1 – November 1) Westfield Citrus Park supports our school by hosting a shopping rewards program where schools compete to win cash prizes up to $10,000. At the end of the two-month program, the points are tallied and the top three schools win cash prizes. Each dollar that a customer spends at Westfield Citrus Park can be turned into a point for our school.

Teacher Appreciation Week (February 1-February 5) At ICS we always celebrate Teacher Appreciation during Catholic Schools Week. Each day of the week IPHSA plans a special treat for the teacher; i.e., bagels for breakfast, surprise goodies in their mailbox. At the end of the week on Friday, students get out at noon and IPHSA uses this opportunity to serve our teachers a fabulous lunch. We want our teachers to know how very much we appreciate them!
Papa John’s Pizza Night (Second Thursday of every month) Papa John’s donates 20% of your order back to our school. Simply order pizza for pickup or delivery, fill out the slip and turn it in. Everyone loves pizza!
