Cash for Christmas
NOTE:
..............................
The Mackowski family has consistently earned just under $1,000.00 per year off their tuition bill by selling Cash for Christmas tickets! You can too!

MPS FUNDRAISER EVENTS

Many schools seem to have some sort of fundraiser going on all the time. Seems you can not go more than a month or so without getting approached to contribute to yet another boring and expensive fundraiser, all while paying tuition! At Mercyhurst Prep, we think that we have come up with a better approach ... keep it simple, make it better. With this in mind, we have cut back on the number of fundraisers, made them more exciting, and put all our emphasis on trying to be considerate to our parents and those that already support MPS. Below you can review our solution and descriptions.

The “CASH FOR CHRISTMAS” Parent Fundraiser
FALL 2010!
This is our ONLY mandatory fundraiser and we have made it as painless as possible for our parents. Each student’s family is to sell raffle tickets for great BiG cash giveaways and $50 daily winners! We work it so the mandatory cost of the 25 tickets is already included and paid for in your tuition. In this way you have already purchased the tickets and for every one you sell, you just keep the money. This adds incentive since you have already paid for them and can now recoup your money!
The cash giveaways are in the thousands of dollars with initial $50 daily drawings beginning mid November through ever school day to Christmas break! There are also numerous ways for the student sellers to win. Computers, XBoxes and iPods (or cash equivalents) for the high sellers, and other great student prizes just for being the one who sold the ticket!

SPRING BREAK & CASINO NIGHT
a fundraiser with Caribbean beach party attitude!

MARCH 20th, 2010! READ ABOUT THIS PAST YEAR'S EVENT by clicking here.
Always around the first day of Spring, this fantastic event heats up the season with festive decor. The athletic wing foyer, gym and cafeteria are transformed into a Caribbean night club with music, dancing, festive cuisine and desserts prepared by the Mercyhurst College Institute of Culinary Arts. Do you like casino table games and other types of chance and amusement
? This night will be perfect for you with auctions and activities that keep energy high throught the entire evening. The attire is your choice but "Caribbean casual" seems to dominate. Buy your ticket and you are in! The rest is on us, aside from the gambling!

The Football TAILGATE PARTY for Homecoming
FALL 2010!
Date to be announced but it always coincides with our Homecoming game (rain or shine) and held in the MPS Cafeteria. The party starts at 5:30 followed with the game at 7:00 and all within walking distance at the Mercyhurst College Tullio Field. Come cheer your Mercyhurst Lakers on to victory! The current cost is $12.00 which
includes great food, beverages, snacks and desserts and FREE admission to the game!  Can't beat that!! (Spouses or guests will be charged $12 per person.) Note: The Tailgate is an adult party but your family is welcome at a total-family cost of $30/immediate family members.
MPS ALUMNI! –
Look for the ‘Alumni Registration’ sign at the Tailgate to get your 5-, 10-, 15- or 20+ year recognition button to wear for the party and game.  We’ll take a moment during the halftime homecoming festivities to recognize alumni.
