Our Catholic Life Raffle Ticket sales program in ongoing. All proceeds from the sale of each $5 ticket directly benefits OLPH! This year's goal is to raise $42,000 for the operational budget of the school.
This continues to be a great fundraiser for OLPH, sponsored by Catholic Life Insurance-a 100% win-win for the school! Catholic Life has been a Catholic school supporter for over 111 years; with this event, Catholic Life provides the grand raffle prize, including the choice of a truck, car, or $20,000 in a prepaid VISA card, as well as a number of secondary prizes. Thank you for selling those tickets!

HEB/Gift Card Sales (previously called Scrip)
Gift cards to HEB and many other retailers are sold every weekend after Mass and are always available at the CDC. An order form is also sent home once a month in the Wildcat folder. The program makes available gift cards from vendors such as Wal-Mart, department stores, restaurants and movie theaters. When these gift cards are purchased from the school, these retailers share a percentage of the purchase with OLPH School, while the cards retain the full face value paid, just like cash! The percentage OLPH receives varies by vendor and is detailed on the order form. The power of this program is in participation. Please consider using the program not only for gifts but for everyday shopping and dining. When cards are purchased for
everyday expenses – purchases you already make – OLPH School receives from 1.25% up to 20% of that purchase!
Family Night Out/ Spirit Night
Usually held once a month at Bahama Bucks, CiCi's Pizza, Chick-Fil-A, or Raisin' Canes. THese businesses donate a percentage of the night's sales to OLPH. Available for dining in or carry out, simply put your receipt in the OLPH bucket next to the register in order for the sale to count. This is also a great opportunity to meet up with other OLPH families.
Spirit Wear
The PTC sells OLPH T-shirts in both adult and children's sizes, along with other OLPH accessories. The "Spirit Shop" is available at the Registration Fair and at many PTC meetings. PLEASE NOTE: Order forms for the new field trip T-shirt are available in the office, or for download on Renweb, it is considered the official field trip shirt.
