The SAQ Shop & Support Fundraising Program has begun.
Do you ever shop at Superstore? Home Depot? Petro-Canada? Canadian Tire? Shoppers Drug Mart? Sears? Have you ever calculated your yearly grocery bill? Your gasoline bill? Your children’s clothing bill? Well, on average, families spend at least $20,000 per year on these everyday items.
By using the SAQ Shop & Support Fundraising Program, each and every family can contribute to our club and earn additional monies to off-set your own swimmer’s costs with no additional out-of-pocket expense. Now you can raise money for your swimmer(s) and our swim team by simply shopping and using gift cards & certificates from over 100 brand name retailers that we all shop at, such as Shoppers Drug Mart, Zellers, The Gap, Winners and many more! SAQ swimmers will receive a percentage from each card & certificate purchased, ranging from 2%-15%.
For example, when you purchase a Shoppers Drug Mart gift card through the Aqualenes, we will be credited 4%* of the purchase of which 25% goes to SAQ and 75% goes to your individual fundraising account.. Using a gift certificate to go to the movies will give us 5%, and so on. They can be used as cash for just about any household purchases including food, clothing, entertainment, gasoline, and even dining out. Everyone can participate - parents, neighbors, grandparents and extended family and friends. How do you get started?
It starts right here!
