CURRENT FUNDRAISERS
There are A TON of ways you can help support the PTO and Munford Elementary school! Many of them are very simple and some don't cost you anything but a few minutes! Please consider participating on one (or all!) of our ongoing fundraisers!
_____________________Ways you and your children can help with the PTO fundraisers over the summer break:
Save up those Capri-Sun juice pouches!Toss out the straw, rinse them out with water (to keep the bugs away) and store them in a bag or rubber tote until August!
Shop at Kroger with your MES-PTO Kroger Card!There is still time this school year to get your MES-PTO Kroger Gift Card! Click
HERE for the form. Send it to school with your child along with $5 and you'll get back a $5 Kroger Gift Card. Each time you reload it, 5% of all monies will go directly to MES-PTO!
Box Tops! Box Tops! Box Tops!Just because the school year is over is no reason to stop collecting! We'll pick up collections in the new school year with an even bigger goal! We flew right on by this year's goal so we know what our MES families are capable of! We can't wait to count that first collection of the 2010-2011 school year after everyone has been saving up those Box Tops all summer long!
A list of participating products can be found
here.
Easy peasy, right?!
And of course, stay tuned to MES-PTO on Facebook for regular updates and information throughout the summer!

The DIRECTV4Schools™ program is an easy way for our school to earn the funds needed for the special programs, equipment and events that enrich student learning.
Through the program, our school earns $100 for every new customer and $50 for every existing DIRECTV customer who calls 888-388-4724, commits to one year of DIRECTV® service and mentions the school’s unique School Code
A1074. There are no orders to take, no products to deliver, and schools receive the funds they’ve earned twice a year.

DRINK POUCH BRIGADE

We're now collecting CapriSun (and other foil based drink pouches) pouches not only as a fundraiser for the PTO but to encourage the students to recycle as well!
We'll be collecting the pouches consumed from Friday's snack cart and will also have a collection boxes around the school to deposit them in.
In addition, you can help by sending in your empty (without the straw) CapriSun pouches from home, soccer games, snack time, picnics, lunches, etc.
MES will receive TWO CENTS for every pouch we send in!
It doesn't get any easier than that, right?
_____________________Do you shop at Kroger?
Well, here is an easy and FREE fundraiser for YOU!

Purchase a Kroger Gift Card through the PTO and 5% of all monies applied to the gift card come back to the school!
It's as simple as adding money to the gift card at the checkout and paying with it. For example, if your total is $100.00, instead of paying directly with your check or credit/debit card, use that check or credit/debit card to put $100.00 on your Kroger Gift Card and you just earned the school $5.00! How easy is that?
It may not seem like much but if we had just 100 families participating and using $100 per week on their Gift Card, it would total over $25,000 in a year!!!!
But remember, it has to be a gift card purchased through the PTO. To order one, please click here!
Last year, this program earned $1500.00 with only a handful of participants! With your help, we can raise even MORE this year!_____________________
