Update on the Raley's Extra card and
Gene's Fine Food
Contributor account numbers are available on reports for the Raley's Extra card again. If you have your account number, email me so the quarterly contributions will be credited to your student's account.
If you shop at Gene's Fine Foods, stop by and get its Community Card. Gene's is part of the eScrip program so up to 5% of your monthly purchases will benefit Amador Friends of Music and your student. Gene's is running a promotion until May 31 where we can earn an additional 10% from Clover Stornetta Farms or Clover Organic Farms items (excluding milk & eggs). I have 75 cents coupons available for Clover products if you are interested. Unlike Safeway that has a cap on contributions to AFM which was reached late last year, Gene's currently has no cap on contributions.
If you have any questions, feel free to email Doris Lem.

Looking for ways for you or your child to earn dollars for your band donations? We have just the thing for you.
 For the second year, the band has the opportunity to volunteer for the Alameda County Fair. As a volunteer, you can earn dollars ($4 or $5 per hour) that can be put directly into your child's account or donated to the band. The Fair needs parents and students to volunteer. Every hour that is worked can earn dollars towards your band fees.
There are limited hours available and need volunteers that can be very flexible in the areas they work at and have availability late into the fair.
If you are interested, please fill out this form and list Audrey Gould as the group sponsor ASAP and email the form directly to Jamie Osborn and copy Audrey.
The Fair runs from Wednesday, June 19th to Sunday, July 7th (closed Mondays).
It's a great way to earn money during the summer vacation.
If you have questions, please contact Audrey.
