At PACE, it’s always the season to earn money toward your fundraising obligation.
This might be the easiest and best way to raise money for your PACE obligation. Why? You don’t have to sell anything and it doesn’t cost your family anything.
Do you want to give a loved one a gift? Are you planning to go to the movies? Have you considered going grocery shopping, buying gas for your car, or doing early holiday shopping?
To earn money for your PACE obligation, simply buy a gift card through RaiseRight, then pay for your purchase with the gift card! It’s as easy as that.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is RaiseRight?
The RaiseRight company purchases gift cards at a discount and sells them to non-profits like us. You pay full price for the gift cards and we credit the discount amount (3-15%) to your yearly fundraising obligation.
Physical gift cards look the same and work the same as cards you would buy at a regular store. Electronic cards can also be purchased; these can be printed or presented to retailers using your mobile device.
