FlipGive FlipGive is an app that you can use to raise money for Brant Christian without spending extra money or with extra hassle. All you do is download the app and scan the app for each purchase you make at a participating vendor. The vendors reimburse FlipGive a portion of the purchase amount; FlipGive takes a small percentage of that and then passes the rest of that reimbursement to Brant Christian School. It is easy and, best of all, there is no extra money coming out of your pocket! We had a prize draw for society members who joined Brant's FlipGive Team and purchased a gift card by September 13th, and we have a winner - Lisa Johnson. Lisa wins a $50 "AnyCard" gift card. Congratulations Lisa!
Write-On Bulletin Board Parents, want to brag on/encourage your kids? We have a way to do that! We have a "Write On" bulletin board at school in the main hallway where our student's achievements can be posted and celebrated! Simply send a note with an article or photo to Cathy Massey, catherine.massey@pallisersd.ab.ca, who will print it and post it on the board. Simple as that!
