Our Fundraising Programs

Jogathon
 
We are gearing up for the 2011 Jog-a-Thon.  This is our BIG event.  We don't ask you to sell wrapping paper or candy bars.  Rather we focus on one day, October 19th, to raise the majority of money needed to fund our PTA programs.  We ask you for Matching Funds if your company provides those, since those matching funds are a significant portion of our goal and of the money we raise each year.  This year's Jog-a-thon is:  Dash to Make a Splash!

escrip and SCRIP
SCRIP is another easy way to channel dollars back to Ben Franklin.  You can purchase SCRIP cards to Red Apple, Starbucks, PCC and QFC.  These are similar to gift cards, but a percentage of the sales goes back to Ben Franklin.  And at some stores, like PCC, you can re-load your card when you use it up.  You can find the order form for SCRIP cards here.  Scrip is great idea for teacher gifts, holiday gifts, etc.

E-Scrip works at Safeway.  Current E-Scrip users need to renew by November 1st, 2011.  New users can sign up any time.

Box Tops For Education
We all shop for groceries, sometimes two or three times a week –- or more. Now turn those shopping trip into easy cash for our school, and encourage friends to do the same! Just look for the Box Tops logo on hundreds of products like Cheerios®, Hamburger Helper® and Kleenex®, in almost every aisle of the store. All you need to do is clip and send them to your school’s Box Tops coordinator —- each one is worth 10¢ for your school.
 
In addition to clipping box tops you can earn up to 15% cash back for our school when you shop online through the Box Tops Marketplace®. With dozens of participating stores, just start at the Marketplace, shop online as you normally would and a percentage of your purchase will automatically be donated to our school.

 
 
Labels for Education
 For more than 30 years, Labels for Education has been awarding free educational equipment to schools in exchange for proofs of purchase from the Campbell family of brands. It’s a fun, easy program where students, families and members of the community work together for a common goal

Today, over 80,000 schools and organizations are registered with Labels for Education, benefiting more than 42 million students. Over the years, we've been able to provide more than $100 million in merchandise to America's schools!

Microsoft Matching for Volunteer Hours
Microsoft will pay our school $17 per hour that full-time employees volunteer at the school, ask you HR person for more details.
