Fundraising

Why does the PFA raise money?

Unfortunately, public schools in California are minimally funded compared to the other 49 states. We enjoy high quality schools here because families have made a commitment to provide that for our children. This requires extra financing that is not covered by the state, local or federal government. We raise money to cover the costs of many of the programs, supplies and activities offered at Pleasanton Middle School.

We appreciate any and all donations that you are able to provide. 

Grocery Store Rebates

We have access to "FREE MONEY" through many of the local grocery stores.  Safeway, Raleys and Lucky all have programs whereby they send us a percentage of their sales based on what you have purchased at their store.  You need a card from each of these stores to participate in their program.  Please contact our eSrcip  coordinator, Cheryl Moeller, at moeller@pacbell.net if you need a card.  For Safeway, if you need to update your card or have lost your card,  please call their hotline at 1-877-723-3929.

eScrip • Electronic Scrip

When you shop at participating retailers with your eScrip registered card (credit or guest), the store sends a percentage of your purchases to the school as a donation. Again, this costs you nothing!  Our group ID is 140658895.  To register, download here eScrip, complete, and return to the address on the form.  For questions, please contact our eSrcip coordinator, Cheryl Moeller, at moeller@pacbell.net

 Corporate Matching of Donations

Many corporations offer matching programs for donations to non profit organizations, such as PMS PFA or PPIE.  It's a great way to double any contributions you make and help your company promote its community relations programs.  Find more information here about Corporate Matching Programs.
