We’re excited to announce the relaunch of our RaiseRight Gift Card Program! This program has been part of our school family for many years, but it’s time to bring it back in full force as we look ahead to the 2026–2027 school year.

Here’s how it works:

• Purchase gift cards (physical or digital) from hundreds of popular retailers through RaiseRight.

• Use them for your everyday shopping—groceries, gas, restaurants, clothing, travel, and more.

• Every purchase earns a rebate that benefits both your family and our school!

The best part?

• 50% of everything earned between now and May 31, 2026, will be credited directly to your tuition for the 2026–2027 school year.
• The other 50% helps cover program costs and support our school.

This is a simple way to reduce your family’s tuition costs while helping Columbus Christian School thrive—all by making purchases you already make every day.

Getting Started:

1. Visit RaiseRight.

2. Use our enrollment code: EBD8F1941L567.

3. Shop, save, and support!

Thank you for joining us in bringing RaiseRight back stronger than ever. Together, we can make a big impact for our families and our school!
