FUNDRAISING

WAYS TO HELP OUR SCHOOL

In these days of tight finances, we need any and all help we can get in raising money for your children and our school.  Thanks to the generosity of some corporations, there are many ways that you can do this, and they don’t cost you anything.  We are listing some below.  If you know of others or if the company you work for has any such programs, please send us this information and we’ll be happy to share it with our families here at Immac.

BOXTOPS FOR EDUCATION -– General Mills.  These box tops are found on many products – cereal, cake mixes, frosting, Pillsbury crescent rolls, etc.  Every box top is worth 10 cents.  All you have to do is clip them and send them into school.  Special Bonus:  If you hold them until you have 20 and put them in an envelope with your child’s name and room number, your child will receive a  N.U.T. Card (no uniform today).  Please note that only 2 N.U.T. Cards will be issued per month, (Boxtops, Campbells and Tyson-see paragraph below) but we hope this will not prevent you from sending us extra box tops.

Via the Internet, you can log onto www.boxtops4education.com and learn how various companies such as Amazon.com and JCPenney.com are participating.  You can register on line and up to 10% of the amount of your purchases (depending on the store) will be donated to our school.

TARGET- offers participation in the program “Target Take Charge of Education”.  You can inquire at any Target store for details.  We just received a check for $176.59 from Target’s program.  See how it adds up!!

CAMPBELL’S LABELS-- collect 20 labels of selected Campbell soup Franco-American, Goldfish, Healthy Request, Pace, Pepperidge Farm and Prego etc., send them in like boxtops and receive a  N.U.T. card  (no uniform today). Please note that only 2 N.U.T Cards will be issued per month (Tyson, box tops Campbell’s) check out their web-site www.labelsforeducation.com

WASHINGTON MUTUAL BANK—If you have a checking account and Visa check card, every purchase earns points.  At the end of the year points are turned into cash for the school. (There is no extra cost to you, to enroll).  www.wamoolaforschools.com.

These are all just suggestions.  You are under no obligation to participate but we will be grateful for any help you can give us.  Thank you for all you do for us. 

Sincerely,

Ms. Eileen Harnischfeger

Principal
