RALPHS’ COMMUNITY REWARDS PROGRAM – PCR PTA received $20,000 from this program last year! Even if you participated last year, you still need to re-enroll. Here’s how:
•Go to the store and ask them to scan your card and scan the PCR bar code. You will see informational notices at each check stand that direct you what to do.
•If you have a Ralphs Reward card, click here.
•If you don’t know your Ralphs Reward card number, call 1-800-660-9003 and they’ll tell you your card number. Then follow the steps above.
•If you do not have a Ralphs Reward card, sign up at a store and ask to have your card linked to PCR community fundraising.
FREELANTHROPY.COM - If you use freelanthropy.com/search/pcr as your search engine, PCR PTA earns money with every search! Follow directions at the site to make it your homepage and download the free custom PCR toolbar. Freelanthropy.com also has a shopping site that will direct you to online merchants who will donate a percentage of sales to PCR PTA without requiring credit card registration.
eSCRIP.COM – eScrip.com generated thousands of dollars for PCR PTA last year. This is how we earn money from Vons and many other retail outlets.
•Register with eScrip here.
•Click on “My eScrip”, register and log in, then click on “Go to Account Administration”. First, under “Group Selection”, make sure Palm Crest Elementary School is your designated donation recipient. Next, enter and/or update all possible Vons, credit and debit cards information. This will allow these cards to produce the most revenue possible from your everyday shopping.
•If you don’t know your Von’s card number, call 877-723-3929 and they’ll tell you your card number. Then follow the steps above.
eSCRIP.COM ONLINE MALL - Bookmark shopping.escrip.com, and check here first before ordering merchandise online. For example, Amazon.com will donate 2.4% of all purchases back to PCR PTA if ordered via their eScrip.com link with registered credit cards. By taking this one extra step to access online merchants through eScrip.com, the donations to PCR will add up.
TARGET - If you have a Target credit card, go to www.target.com/tcoe, click “Enroll in Take Charge of Education”, fill out and submit our school information (school ID # 32001), click to select this school, and enter your red card information, and click “Complete enrollment”.
OFFICE DEPOT - When you shop at Office Depot, ask the cashier to direct the 5% “Taking Care of Schools” donation from your purchase to “Palm Crest Elementary School”. This requires no card registration and most of their products qualify. Also, bring in your old printer ink cartridges to the PCR office for recycling. Office Depot will credit the school $3 for each cartridge.
