Here is a FREE, EASY way to donate money to a local elementary school:

If you shopped at Safeway between July 18 and September 5 you may have purchased certain products that were eligible for a 10% rebate to the school of your choice. If you are registered with eScrip, your rebate will automatically go to the school that you selected when you registered with eScrip.

If you are not registered with eScrip, your rebate will NOT be awarded to any school automatically. Last year, millions of dollars in rebates went unclaimed!

If you do not have a child in public school, please consider donating your rebate to the Palo Verde Elementary School PTA.

You can do this by sending us your "10% Back to Schools" redemption code (printed on the bottom of your Safeway receipts through October 6) OR by sending us your Safeway Club Card number (not your phone number - to confirm your Club Card number call 1-877-SAFEWAY).

Your personal information WILL NOT be revealed to Palo Verde PTA and you WILL NOT be registered with eScrip. The number will simply be used to claim funds from the "10% Back to Schools" rebate program.

Please send your redemption code or Club Card number to:

paloverde dot escrip at gmail dot com

The parents and students of Palo Verde Elementary School thank you!
