Student Fundraising Events
The PTA is allowed three student fundraising events per school year. This year we will once again be partnering with West Coast
Fundraising for our first fundraiser of the year. This has been our most profitable fundraising in several years and allows the
PTA to provide for Fieldtrip buses and additional classroom resources. We are open to suggestions for the remaining two fundraising
events for this school year. If you would like to submit your suggestions, contact the school or
email
WhitmanPTA.
Monthly "Dine-Out" Nights
Whitman PTA schedules with local restaurants to host "Dine-Out" nights. Flyers are distributed advertising Restaurant and Date information.
The restaurant donates 10% to 20% of all proceeds to the Whitman PTA. The diner must present the fundraiser flyer at the time of order
for the proceed to be credited.
eScrip
eScrip is an easy way to earn money for Whitman just by shopping or dining at local establishments. Hundreds of merchants will donate
from 1% to 8% of your purchase amount to the school when you use your registered credit and/or debit card(s). Simply go to
escrip.com to register your credit, debit, VONS Club, Macy's, and other cards and to access a list of participating merchants. Designate Whitman Elementary
by using the group ID # 5493666. Use your registered card when making a qualifying purchase at a participating merchant, and the merchant will then make a
contribution to the school.
Box Tops
Yes, it really is worth it to clip those boxtops! The Box Tops for Education program helps schools earn money by donating 10¢ for each submitted boxtop.
To participate, just clip Box Tops from hundreds of brands —including General Mills, Betty Crocker, Ziploc and many others—then drop them into the collection box in the school office. You can also earn money by shopping at your favorite online stores through
the Box Tops Marketplace or by getting a Box Tops Visa card. For more information, visit the
Box Tops for Education
website.
