Fundraising Committee -

This is where it all happens - how could we accomplish anything without the Fundraising committee? And we have so much more we'd like to do for our school.  Are you the type of person who enjoys fundraising? Do you know someone who does? Let us know!  In addition to volunteering your time and talents, there are several very easy ways you can participate in raising money for Maricopa Elementary School as part of your normal everyday activities.

MES Needs your Tax Dollars!

Have you heard about the Arizona school tax credit? This tax credit does NOT cost you any extra tax dollars. You can contribute a portion of your tax dollars to Maricopa Elementary in lieu of paying the Arizona Department of Revenue. Please look for more information coming home with your child in the near future or you can find out more online or call 800-352-4090.

Box Tops and Soup Labels

Box Tops for Education has helped America's schools earn over $200 million since 1996. MES can earn up to $60,000 every year through Box Tops- that's as much as $20,000 from each of three easy ways to earn.  In addition to clipping box tops from many of your favorite products, MES can earn dollars when you shop some of your favorite online stores, or by purchasing books from the Box Tops Book Club. Find out more information on the program and lots of valuable coupons at www.BoxTopsforEducation.com.

For more than 30 years, Campbell's Labels for Education™ has been awarding free educational equipment to schools in exchange for proofs of purchase from the Campbell family of brands. It’s a fun, easy program where students, families and members of the community work together for a common goal. For a list of eligible products and instructions, visit Campbell's Labels for Education™ website.

Earn Money for MES while you Shop!

You can help raise money for our school just by linking your Fry’s and Bashas frequent shopper cards to our school.  Bashas’ and Fry’s will donate 1% of every dollar that you spend to our school up to an annual limit.  The money does not come out of your pocket, it’s their contribution!  Remember that participants must re-register each year, so please sign up on your next visit, and remember  to scan your card each time you make a purchase!

Fry's "Cool Cash" for Kids.

How to Enroll: You must enroll in person. To do so, go to Fry's and present our school's I.D. #11102 along with your VIP card, or, print this page and ask the cashier to scan in our school's barcode.   Donation: Once $50,000 in purchases are recorded as a total group, Fry's will send a reward of $500.00 to the school.  This can happen up to four times this school year from September 1 through April 26.

Target "Take Charge of Education"

We've discovered another terrific way to raise funds for our school. It's super-easy, and all you have to do is use your Target® Visa® or Target® Card. We will receive a percentage of the amount of each purchase in the form of a cash donation from Target through the Take Charge of Education® program. It's easy. Just visit target.com/tcoe, or call 1-800-316-6142 to designate our school. So if you're going to Target anyway, please consider using your Target® Visa® or Target® Card. Big thanks to those who are already doing their part to make a great school even better. Find out how much money our school has already received at target.com/tcoe. Grandparents, alumni, neighbors and friends can take part, too.
