Fundraising
CMS does several fundraisers throughout the year. There are no fundraising expectations of parents. Participation is completely voluntary. Generally, funds raised go toward classroom materials or playground improvements.
CMS also participates in three ongoing fundraisers that cost nothing to participate in. They are Campbell’s Labels for Education, General Mill’s Box Tops for Education, and Evolve Recycling. Below are the details on each program.
Campbell’s Labels For Education
Campbell’s gives the school points for each label we clip and send in. The points can be redeemed for many different products for the school from PE equipment to computers. All Campbell’s products are eligible including Swanson, Pace, Pepperidge Farms (Goldfish Crackers count!), V8, and Prego. For a complete list of eligible products please visit their web site athttp://www.labelsforeducation.com.
Box Tops For Education–General Mills
General Mills donates ten cents for every box top clipped and turned in to the school. General Mills also offers a wide variety of applicable products including many cereals, Hamburger Helper, and Pillsbury. Simply look for the Box Tops for Education logo on products.
Evolve Recycling (Ink/Toner Cartridges, Cell Phones, and select other electronics)
Evolve Recycling gives money for turned in (empty or partially used) ink and laser jet cartridges, cell phones, and other select electronics. Donation amounts vary based on the type. Cartridges can be turned in to the box in the entryway. Please see the school office with any questions.
