This school year, The Children's House will be participating in the following "Easy Money" efforts: Box Tops for Education, Oleson's Community Share and Glen's Cash for Class. By taking a few easy steps, your family can help earn extra money for The Children's House...without any added expense to you! Please read on for information regarding each of these "Easy Money" opportunities!
Box Tops for Education - label submission
Box Tops for Education may be one of the easiest ways to earn cash for The Children's House! Box Tops labels are probably on the packaging of many of the products that you use every day. Simply trim labels from the packaging (as close to the dotted line as you can), stick them in a baggie, and send them to school with your student. For added fun, your student may like to attach Box Tops labels to some of the fun-themed collection sheets offered online (collection sheets may be submitted once complete). Please note that Box Tops will be honored if not perfectly clipped along the dotted line, but the label MUST show the logo, value, as well expiration date. Expired Box Tops will NOT be honored.
Though The Children's House will be collecting Box Tops throughout the year, the first submission deadline is at the end of October. With this in mind, please begin saving and sending your Box Tops to school today!

Oleson's Community Share - receipt submission
Oleson's Food Stores offer an easy opportunity for families to earn funds for The Children's House. All you need to do is save your Oleson's Food Store receipts and send them to school with your student. Community Share Points (printed near the bottom of your receipt) earn our school one cent per point. While that may not sound like much, it adds up to quite a lot!
Glen's Markets Cash for Class - "yes" card registration
Glen's Markets Cash for Class is yet another very simple way to earn some extra money for The Children's House. Cash for Class allows Glen's shoppers to link their rewards cards, called "yes" cards, with up to two local schools of their choice. During the weeks of October 2 - 8, October 30 - November 5, and November 20 - 26, purchases made with your "yes" card will automatically be credited to the school(s) of your choice. To begin, simply go to www.myyesrewards.com to link your card and to designate your school(s). You only need to link your card once per school year and donations will automatically be linked upon swiping your card at checkout. Already a "yes" member, but don't have an online account set up? Just visit www.myyesrewards.com, click on "First Time to Site", and follow the easy steps to complete your online account registration. Please note that you will need to update your "yes" card registration each school year to continue to earn donations for your chosen school(s). For your information, the Cash for Class program does NOT interfere with personal "yes" card points or rewards. Rather, schools will receive a check based on the percentage of all members' purchases.
As a quick side note, Meijer, Tom's or any other food market receipts (other than Oleson's) WILL NOT be honored.
