MANNA is spending money you were already going to spend without additional cost to you. In other words, using a gift card as money to purchase things that you need such as groceries, household items, entertainment, etc; as well as for gift giving. St. Albert the Great School buys a variety of gift certificates (grocery stores, restaurants, retail stores, etc.) from various sources at a discount and then we sell them to you at face value. The profits generated from these sales are used to enhance the Day School, Parish and PSR programs. The discounts range from 2% to 20% depending on the vendor. The MANNA program is currently the largest fundraiser for St. Albert the Great School.
