Box Tops

Box Tops Spring Contest is under way and due 4/30/19 These funds will be used directly by the school (not a PTA fundraiser). Please keep clipping! You can also help FRES by “e-clipping” via the Box Tops app! Download the app, see the deals offered, take a photo of your receipt after purchase...and FRES can score big $! If you do this, please submit a note in with your traditional Box Tops (with your child’s name, grade, and teacher) listing how many you earned on the app so we can include the e-total in our spring contest! Or drop a note to psulauren@yahoo.com. Thank you for your support!

Don’t forget Harris Teeter - Grocery Rewards!

FRES participates in Harris Teeter’s Together in Education program to help raise funds for our school. It’s easy and it’s FREE. Simply give the cashier our code, 7900, and your VIC card when you check out, and your card will be linked for the entire school year. That’s it! You only have to link your VIC card once each school year. Once your card is linked, FRES will receive percentage of your Harris Teeter brand (Harris Teeter, H.T. Traders, Harris Teeter Organics, HT Farmers Market, and purchases in the HT Pharmacy) purchases credited back to our account. This program does not interfere with your VIC savings or cost you any money! Please link your VIC card to our account code next time you are shopping at Harris Teeter if you haven't already done so this school year! Thank you for your support.

 

Coca-Cola Rewards

My Coke Rewards for Schools program will donate cash to FRES for Coke points, found inside cartons of 12 packs and on the lids of bottles of Coke products. You can enter codes yourself and donated to Forest Ridge at https://us.coca-cola.com/give/ or you can send them in to the school and we will enter it for you. Thank you for your support.
