Fundraising Made Simple

Thank you so much for your help in raising funds for the programs our kids enjoy! There are lots of ways to contribute to Fairlands, but how about some simple ways to have someone else donate in your name? Before you hit the stores, be sure to check out these options.

Safeway Club Card

Last year 134 out of 474 Fairlands’ families were enrolled and we received over $$5,000. If you have a Safeway Club card and register it with Escrip, Escrip will donate a percentage of your purchases to Fairlands PTA. Your children do not have to go to Fairlands in order to participate. Your friends and extended family can also designate Fairlands PTA as their sponsored school. Our Escrip number is 141538060. To sign-up go to www.escrip.com to register your Safeway Club Card. If you don’t have internet access, please call Coleen at 462-9443. Remember, every year you must renew your Safeway Club Card with Escrip to keep your donations coming.

Macy’s credit card, ATM, or debit card

You can also register these cards under Escrip. Escrip will donate a percentage of your purchases to Fairlands PTA if you shop at Macy’s or other stores that are part of the Escrip program. To find out what businesses qualify, go to www.escrip.com. Again, your extended family and friends can designate Fairlands PTA as their sponsored school. To sign-up go to www.escrip.com. If you do not have internet access, please contact Coleen at 462-9443.

Wamoola for Schools

If you have a Washington Mutual Visa Check card, you can sign it up for the Wamoola for Schools program. With every purchase you make with the card to buy gas, groceries…, Washington Mutual will make a donation to Fairlands for each purchase. To sign-up, call 1-800-788-7000.
