Target consumer #2 is Parochial Schools.  These schools teach the fundamentals of the catholic religion and principals of Lent.  The Parochial schools are always looking to raise funds for their schools and churches.  The cards are easy and portable product used to raise money and  spread the information about Lent.  This can help to bring in new church members to the parish and new students to the Parochial Schools.
