From cool fundraising events to box tops and scrips cards, it has
never been easier to support the Pony Express community!
Below are our current fundraising events, as well as several
other effortless ways you can start help raising funds for
Pony. It doesn’t take much to make a difference! As
always, we appreciate your time and support in helping our
community thrive.
The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Pennies for Patients
campaign is working with thousands of schools across the country
to raise funds for blood cancer research–and we are one of them!
Our school has teamed up with Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS)
to create a world without cancer, and YOU can help our Squad make
a difference in this journey.
Thanks to schools like US and donors like YOU, there are more
children and adults surviving every day.
Would you like a break from the seemingly endless fundraising
events to raise money for things like band instruments, sports
equipment or field trips?
The State of California’s ScholarShare 529 College Savings Plan
is here to help!

Fiona Ma and ScholarShare 529, will award more than $300,000 to
California’s K-8 public and charter schools in 2019.
PONY EXPRESS ELEMENTARY is part of the 2018-2019 Shopping to
Educate Program.

but unfortunately not budgeted for.
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.
Shop Amazon and anywhere from 4% to 10% of your purchase will go
to our school! Use our unique Amazon link, which takes you
directly to Amazon.com, where you can browse and shop just as you
normally would. Bookmark this link and use it each time you
shop at Amazon! Pass it on to your family, friends, and
anyone else who would like to help Pony.
Box Tops for Education is a school fundraiser with unlimited
earning potential! All you have to do is accumulate box
tops from participating products and deposit them in the Box Top
Can located in the front office. Our school earns $0.10 for
each box top collected. If each student turns in just 40
box tops over the course of the school year, that will result in
almost $1,700 for Pony! Go to the Boxtops website for a
complete product listing and printable coupons.
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.
Shoparoo is a free app
for smartphones that allows everyone to raise money for
Pony! Simply use the app to snap pictures of your
grocery receipts to earn Roo Points, based on the purchase
amount. (500 Roo Points = $1 cash donation from
Shoparoo) You can also take pictures of your non-grocery
receipts for entries into Shoparoo’s $1,000 and $15,000
sweepstakes.
Our school has teamed up with EWASTE4GOOD, a company that
provides free E-waste pickup from your home or business! Simply
go to their website and submit the online form. Be sure to type
“Pony Express PTA” as the organization you are donating to.
See their website for a list of accepted items. A representative
will contact you to schedule your pickup date. It’s a great
way to properly dispose of E-waste AND help earn money for our
school at the same time!
