FUNDRAISING

This year's fundraising chair, Natalie Holland, has planned a number of new and fun fundraisers for H.H. Poole.  Watch the newsletter and the calendar for information on upcoming fundraising events. 

DOMINO'S DOUGH RAISING NIGHTS

H.H. Poole is participating in Domino's Dough Raising Nights on the second Friday of each month.  The PTO will receive 20 percent of all net orders designated to the school during the entire duration of the scheduled date in both delivery and carry-out orders.  You can order pizza for dinner and help support H.H. Poole at the same time.  The following dates are scheduled:  December 11, January 8, February 12, March 12, April 9, May 14 and June 11.

BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION

The Box Tops for Education Program is an easy way for you to help the school.  Our goal this year is to raise $500.  You can help in three ways:

1.  Clip box top coupons from participating brands and send them in to the school.  We earn 10 cents for each one of these.

2.  Do your online shopping via the Box Tops Marketplace (btfe.com/marketplace) and our school can earn up to 8% back on your purchases.

3.  Shop Barnes & Noble online via the Box Tops Reading Room and our school will earn 6% on all new book purchases and 3% on all other purchases.

Bloom grocery stores are currently running a Box Tops promotion.  If you buy 10 Box Tops products in one shopping trip and use your Bloom card, you will receive a certificate for 100 bonus Box Tops (which equals $10 for our school!).
