FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Simply Giving is required for monthly Extended Care payments and preferred for tuition payments.

Simply Giving, a program designed by Thrivent Financial for Lutherans, enables Lutheran educational institutions to receive tuition payments through electronic funds transfer (EFT), thus providing reliable, timely revenue throughout the year and a decrease in late or forgotten tuition payments.

Electronic funds transfer is convenient, reliable and safer than writing a check, since it cannot be lost or stolen. There is no cost to you or Faith Lutheran Church, School and Preschool to participate in the Simply Giving program. Thrivent Financial pays all transaction fees as a gift in support of Lutheran educational institutions.

To enroll in the program, complete the SIMPLY GIVING FORM and return it to the school along with a voided check. Instructions for completing the form are printed on the form, but here is additional information you will need:

• Tuition payments will be automatically deducted on the 10th of each month.
• Withdrawals begin on August 10th for Grades Preschool through 5th grade.
• If the 10th falls on the weekend or holiday, the withdrawal will be made on the next business day.
• If you are unsure of the monthly amount, please contact the school office for further information.
• Families who are re-registering and are already participating in Simply Giving, need only sign the form and enter the monthly total. Attaching a voided check is not necessary unless you are changing your
  bank account.

Simply Giving® is administered by Vanco Services, LLC, an outside vendor that Thrivent Financial for Lutherans has contracted with to provide administrative services. Call Vanco Services at 800-675-7430.
