-eScrip: Your Family Shops - Our School Earns Dollars
eScrip is an important part of our fundraising program. We ask that every family help us make the grade in our fundraising goal. And the best part is it will only take a few minutes of your time. Your grocery club card, your debit card, your credit card all earn the school money without any effort on your part, once they are registered. If you have already registered, please go back online and RENEW current cards or add any new cards not registered. REMEMBER TO ASK FRIENDS, FAMILY AND NEIGHBORS TO REGISTER TOO!
-Target Red Business, Credit and Debit Cards - Take Charge of Education
- Green to Go:
Purchase these earth friendly lunch ware and a portion of it will go back to Holmes. The Holmes PTA has asked Green to Go to offer products that your family can order to make packing trash less lunches a snap!
- Personalized Calendars: Create your own personalized Calendar and support Holmes. The orders are easy and online, anyone can purchase and Holmes will get $10 for every calendar sold. This is the perfect time of the year to purchase it for a holiday gift or to have for the coming new year.
BoxTops is an easy way to earn money for your school. Just remember to shop brands that feature the BoxTop logo.
There are also ways to purchase online and our school still receives BoxTop credits. Register on-line today. It is quick and easy! You can also view participating products
and our eBoxTops retailers
