Bethel Christian Academy conducts a few different fundraising activities throughout the school year. These fund raisers are designed to help offset the difference between BCA’s low tuition and the actual costs of operating BCA. From time to time, BCA has fundraisers that use the proceeds for special programs or projects.
SwIngIn’ FUNraiser
All families and students enrolled at BCA are strongly encouraged to participate in this simple and fun fundraiser. During the months of September through November the BCA student body participated in this fundraising event where BCA raised over $33,000! On the first Friday of October most of the students and their parents gathered at Swings-N-Things for a day of fun and activities.
Candle and Candy Sale
With the awesome participation from our BCA students and parents, this month-long spring fundraiser helps BCA to raise over $28,000! The students who elected to participate in the Candy Sale were granted the benefit of participating in a day of fun at Kalahari in May.
Market Day
A optional monthly food co-op that helps raise funds for BCA. Once a month BCA families have the opportunity to order competitively priced restaurant quality food and pick it up at the school. By buying foods that would ordinarily be purchased BCA families help provide vital funds as well the benefit of delicious, wholesome meals that are convenient to prepare for those days when time for cooking is limited.

Ink Cartridges and Cell Phones for Cash
Thanks to everyone who has donated cartridges and cell phones this year! Monies raised through this donation helps to keep the BCA office and teaching staff stocked with office supplies and also helps keep our purchasing cost low. Any cartridge with a print head can be recycled, regardless of the brand or type (exception-Epson)! If you have any that you would like to donate…we’ll take ‘um! Please bring them to the BCA office and a local company will give us between $2 to $8 for each cartridge turned in. This same company is also willing to give us money for cell phones.
Box Tops for Education
Cut ‘em…Clip ‘em…Tear ‘em off…Save ‘em… but just be sure to COLLECT THEM is what we tell our BCA students! These simple fundraisers help BCA to buy balls, jump ropes and other fun stuff for recess. Most school years our BCA students bring in over 26,000 Campbell’s Labels! The successful Box Tops for Education Program provided BCA with $1,400, the Tyson Project A+ brought in another $64.00, the Giant Eagle Apples for Students brought over 600 points which purchased more balls, jump ropes and recess equipment and Target and Gordon Food Services has provided BCA with over $100 extra dollars quarterly! We couldn’t have done it without the help of our BCA students and families (grandparents play a big part in these fundraisers)!
