Kennydale Parent Teacher Association
Fundraising
Welcome to the Fundraising page of the Kennydale Elementary School PTA.
PTA fundraising is a key element in the success of Kennydale Elementary. By helping raise money, we are able to offer funds for the school for our many activities including Science Night, the Spring Carnival and much more. We are also able to assist with field trips and provide teacher grants for important classroom materials. We need your help to make Kennydale the absolute best it can be! Below is a comprehensive list of organizations that support the school year round. Please make sure you consider and support each! Thanks…
Kennydale Elementary School families, alumni, PTA members, friends and supporters have a RARE opportunity to own a piece of history! We are accepting orders for personalized commemorative bricks to be engraved and installed on the new school site. There is a limited number of bricks to be engraved, so act while they are still available! Click here for more information.
Spring Fundraisers
This year Kennydale will host our Second Annual Walk-a-thon on May 14, 2010. Stay tuned for more information! If you’d like to volunteer for this committee, please contact Nicole Shay.
Year Round Fundraising Earning Opportunities
eScrip
Help Kennydale students by shopping at Safeway! Kennydale PTA is registered with eScrip, a hassle-free way for schools to raise funds through purchases made at participating merchants. To register, log on to www.escrip.com and go to “Sign up.” Our Group ID is 8563708 – Kennydale PTA. On the site you can register your Safeway Club Card for automatic rebates to the school for your grocery purchases, plus you have the opportunity to register any other credit cards for rebates from participating merchants. A percentage of the purchases you make on any registered cards are sent to the Kennydale PTA during the year, there is no cost to you!
New to Kennydale this year is fundraising through the Escrip Recycling Program. Bring in your old toner cartridges (both ink jet and laser), cell phones and laptops for recycling and Kennydale will earn money. A large kiosk will be placed in the office this year to collect these donations.
GoodSearch.com
Help Kennydale earn money by just searching the internet. We all use various search engines daily on the internet. By using goodsearch.com every search we create will donate funds to the Kennydale PTA. The site is tied to goodshop.com, an online shopping mall which donates up to 37% of each purchase to your selected charity. When using the site, make sure you specify the Kennydale PTA for us to receive credit. Note that you don’t have to be shopping for the PTA to receive credit, searching earns a rebate as well.
Albertson’s
Link your Albertson’s Preferred Card to Kennydale PTA and a donation will be made to Kennydale PTA based on your purchases. If you already have an Albertson’s Community Partners card designating Kennydale PTA as the recipient, ask the checkout person to register your Preferred Card based on the Community Partners card...
Target
You can sign up for the Take Charge of Education Program by calling 1-800-316-6142 or by going to Target.com. Target will donate 1% of Target Visa or Target Card purchases at Target stores and Target.com and 1/2% of Target Visa purchases everywhere else you use your Target Visa.
Box Tops for Education
Clip Box Tops from participating General Mills products and send them to school with your student. Box Tops are worth 10 cents each! You can also go to boxtops4education.com, create an account and select Kennydale. Find the drop box in the lobby and drop them in when you drop your kids up!!
Labels for Education
Look for the Labels for Education logo on products from Campbell’s, V8, Prego, Pace, Pepperidge Farm, Swanson, and Franco-American. You will notice that on the new cans of Campbell's soup there is a 1-5 point coupon with the UPC code. On older cans just clip the UPC code, and include the Campbell's "boy" with it – or just send in the whole label! Clip the UPC code from Pepperidge Farm products and save the lids from Prego and Pace products. Send the items to school with your student. Kennydale PTA sends the items in to earn free stuff for the classrooms.
Direct Donations
Donations to Kennydale Elementary can be made directly and through employer-sponsored plans. Boeing, Microsoft and other companies will also match donations made by their employees! Each company has information on their internal websites about how to match donations.
