Passive Fundraising
There are different ways you can support your school and help to raise money for ICS. Please consider doing one or all of them to support ICS.

1. Box Tops 
Parents and students can collect Box Tops for Education found on many packaged foods, like cereal boxes, or household items, like tissue boxes, etc. Bring the collected BoxTops to PTSA room, there is a designated collection box on the counter. Two or three times a year collected BoxTops are sent out for deposit on ICS account.

2. Bartell's eScrip program 
With every purchase a parent makes at Bartell's, ICS receives a percentage of their purchase. Register at the store. Just mention at the register that you would like to sign up for eScrip program. Then use the member card whenever you shop at Bartell's.

3. Everything Party 
We also have a small program with Everything Party, the party store in Redmond and Renton. If parents purchase things at the store and tell them at the check out that they support ICS, the store will donate 10% of the purchase price to ICS.
