PONY EXPRESS ELEMENTARY is part of the 2019-2020 Shopping to Educate Program.
You can help PONY EXPRESS ELEMENTARY raise money for items needed but unfortunately not budgeted for. Program runs August 1, 2019 – May 1, 2020.
Shopping at Lake Crest Village or Loehmanns Plaza? ANY STORE RECEIPT from anyone of the two shopping centers goes toward our school yearlong fundraiser “Shopping to Educate,” that includes store receipts from Starbucks, Nugget, Burger King, Marshalls, Rite Aid just to name a few stores.
Use Amazon Smile For Shopping
Our school earns 5% when you shop via Amazon Smile
Simply designate Pony Express PTA as your non-profit & 5% of the sale will go to the school.
First step is going to the site http://smile.amazon.com & bookmark the website to always use the link that will raise the school money.
Nugget Markets Scrip Program
With this program, up to 4% of your purchases at Nugget Markets will be donated back to our school. To obtain a card, fill out the request form, or leave a note in the PTA mailbox. Register your card online, and present it to the cashier each time you shop at Nugget Markets. Multiple cards can be registered under one family member so monthly purchases earn a greater percentage.
