CONTRIBUTE VIA E-SCRIP
Claremont, Chabot, Far West, and other local schools all participate in the
Escrip program. Escrip is an organization that registers your Safeway Club
Card (and also additional credit cards if you so choose) and then gives a
percent of your purchases to the schools of your choosing. You can choose
to contribute to a single school or have your contributions split among two or
three schools.
Go to www.escrip.com to sign-up and
pick the schools you would like to support.
**** CHRONICLE SUBSCRIPTIONS HELP THE PTA
The San Francisco Chronicle and eScrip have teamed up. Now, Claremont Middle School PTA
will automatically earn $5.00 for every new subscription to the San Francisco
Chronicle and every conversion* to the EZPay Plan. The EZPay plan allows for
your monthly subscription fee to be charged automatically to any debit or credit
card, eliminating the need for you to write checks for your subscription
payments. Supporters simply need to call toll free: 1.800.903.3004 to subscribe
or to convert to EZPay. *Not valid for subscribers currently on EZPay If you are
not a current eScrip member, sign up following the instructions below.
**** ESCRIP:
FUNDRAISING WITHOUT PAIN!
Help raise
money for the Claremont PTA by registering your Safeway, debit, credit, and or
department store cards with eScrip. Then, every time you make a purchase at a
participating store, a percentage of what you spend goes to the PTA.
Participating stores include Safeway, Macy's, Big 5, and Office Max. The
Claremont PTA receives about $1,000 every year from eScrip merchants-just from
purchases by the 138 members who've signed up so far. The more people who sign
up, the more money we make for our kids. Tell friends, family members, and
co-workers to sign up, too! To sign up, go to www.escrip.com. Click on
"sign up" and follow the instructions. Claremont's group name is
Claremont Middle School. The group ID is 142129067.
