Current Fundraisers

Old Cell Phones

As part of a new fundraiser to benefit the school, we are asking you to dig up allof your old and unused cell phones and send them in! Cell-Fund is a non-profit program tha will pay the school $3-$40 per used cell phone submitted. The cell phones are then recycled. Not only will this benefit the school, but it will also benefit your next tax return! For each cell phone submitted, the IRS attaches a fair market value of $40 per phone as a tax deduction! Therefore, be sure to attach a note with your name and address to the phone so a tax deductible receipt can be sent home with your child.

Acme Receipts/Box Tops for Education/Campbell's Products Labels

Simply collect the receipts and labels and send them to school. A great way to participate.

Giant Eagle Apples for Students

Register your Giant Eagle Advantage Card number by calling 1-800-474-4777 or on-line at www.gianteagle.com. After you have registered your card number, enter our school ID#, 1170, in the Apples for Students information.

Toner/Cartridge Recycling

Don't throw away that toner cartridge from your printer. And don't forget to ask at work to save them. Send it to school and we'll send them in for $$$.

Market Day

Order delicious food at delicious prices. Order forms are sent home each month.

Land's End

Purchase gift certificates anytime throughout the year and the school receives a portion of the purchase price.
