Holiday Closing

This is just a reminder that School of the Holy Childhood will be closed beginning December 24, 2011 for the Christmas and New Year's Holidays.  We will re-open on Tuesday, January 3rd!

Happy Holidays from all of us at School of the Holy Childhood!

 

Have you had the opportunity to check out any of our new agency videos yet?  Meet some of our wonderful students and families by watching this video.

UPDATE: Candy Partners

We're proud to add the following to our list of 2012 Candy Partners!


St. Louis School - Pittsford, NY
Seton Catholic School - Brighton, NY
Siena Catholic Academy - Rochester, NY


These schools help Holy Childhood by sending Spring Candy Catalogs with their students in January!  Know of a school that would be willing to do the same? Let me know: kbalconi@holychildhood.org


Remember, it's not too early to ask a local business to help us out by taking a case (or more!) of candy.  For more information or to place an order for candy bars simply call me at 359-3710 ext. 169 or e-mail.

Candy Sale Partners

Did you know that local businesses are an integral part to making sure the Annual Candy Sale is a continued success?  Over the years, many business owners have joined us as "Candy Partners" by selling cases of candy at their registers.  These partnerships usually start with a Holy Childhood family asking the owner if they would be able to help.  Sometimes, we don't even know all of the "outlets" for our candy!  If you know of a local store that would like to join us as a candy partner, please let us know so we can recognize them here! We already have two partners all signed up for the 2012 sale:

M & T Bank - Marketplace Mall location

Rainbow of Styles - Linda Shaw

It's almost Candy Time at Holy Childhood

Hello & Welcome,


On January 5th, approximately 73,000 Gertrude Hawk candy bars will be arriving at our agency in variety packs of 48 bars with flavors including past favorites such as Dark Chocolate Raspberry, Caramel, Peanut Butter and Krispy Bars and many more.


Available for special order this year will be the Dark Chocolate Mint, White Chocolate Truffle, and Dark Chocolate Raspberry.


Again this year, Holy Childhood families will each receive a Candy Selling packet with all of the instructions on how to sell candy bars and Spring Candy for Holy Childhood. 


After a tremendously successful online selling program last year, we will be making that option available to families again. The online program provides each family with their own direct web-link to our Spring Candy Catalog to email, Facebook, or tweet to their friends and relatives.  If you have not tried this option before, I greatly recommend it as it cuts down on the money and paperwork that sellers have to keep track of. This is also a great opportunity for out-of-towners to help support School of the Holy Childhood as Candy can be directly shipped anywhere in the United States.


Be on the look out soon for more information regarding prizes, incentives, and other sale related updates! If you have any questions regarding the sale or would like to place a pre-order for candy bars, please feel free to send me an e-mail.
