FIVE FREE FUNDRAISING FINDS

Here are five easy ways to raise money for the Vinal PTO without spending an extra cent!

  1. STOP & SHOP A+ SCHOOL REWARDS PROGRAM
    If you do your shopping at Stop & Shop, click on ‘savings and rewards’ at to register your rewards card to earn cash for Vinal. Simply select Vinal School as your school of choice in the A+ Rewards to earn cash for Vinal. If you have registered your card in the past, re-registration is not necessary.
    Note: Enrolling your card in the A+ program does not impact gas points or any other rewards programs.
  1. AMAZONSMILE
    Amazon donates 0.5% of the price of your eligible purchases to the charitable organization of your choice when you shop at smile.amazon.com. To sign up, just go to then login with your normal amazon account and designate your charity of choice - Vinal School. All your account features and information stay the same and there are no extra costs to join this program. The trick is that once you signed up, instead of starting your online shopping at amazon.com, go to smile.amazon.com.
  2. BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION
    Collect box tops from General Mills, Pillsbury, Old El Paso, Green Giant, Ziploc, Hefty, Kleenex and Scott products and submit them in bundles of 10 to your teacher through back pack mail. Box Tops are each worth 10¢for Vinal. A contest between the classes will be announced later this fall so plan for an October submittal.

4. BOX TOPS MARKETPLACE

In addition to all the money we earn from collecting box tops, you can now also shop through the box tops marketplace. If you shop online at stores like Target, Gap, Old Navy, Barnes and Nobles, Oriental Trading and many more, a percentage of the sale will be transferred directly to Vinal. All you have to do is register at (it’s free!) and access the store you would like to shop at through the Box Tops website. There are more than 100 stores in the box top marketplace. If you are already shopping online, why not earn some cash for Vinal?

5. CORPORATE MATCHING
Many companies will match your charitable donation. The PTO is a 501(c)(3) which means that we are a non-profit organization and we qualify as a charitable donation. If you were planning on donating to
the Annual Fund, why not see if your company will match the donation and double your money!
