King Soopers Reloadable Grocery Cards
The Lafayette Elementary PTA Grocery Card Program is a great, no-cost way to help our school earn money! Our school earns 5% on each dollar sold! King Soopers has a new re-loadable grocery card which allows you to reload as needed at the store--offering great flexibility and convenience.
Did you know that if 150 families at our school committed to spending $250 with grocery cards each month, our school would earn $22,500 in one year? Get started now! To receive a King Soopers re-loadable card please contact Cindy Outlaw--303-410-0852.

Original Artwork
Original Artwork, a program we tried last Spring, had great success and we are offering it again! Your child will create his or her artwork in art class. In October packets will come home in Friday folders, allowing you to purchase various items with your child's artwork on it. These make wonderful holiday gifts for everyone!
Box Tops and Labels Program
Lafayette Elementary School has accounts with General Mill's Box Tops for Education, Campbell's Labels for Education, and Tyson A+ Project. This program raised $775 for our school last year! Each classroom will have a collection bag for the box tops and labels (no need to separate them) which will be collected the first school day of each month. The class that collects the most Tops & Labels each month will receive a treat. An information packet will be sent home with each student at the beginning of the school year which lists the products that have labels and what portion of the labels to save. This information can also be found at each program's website outlined below.
General Mill's Box Tops for Education has a website where you can shop online. Click on www.boxtops4education.com to shop the Box Tops Marketplace. Lafayette Elementary automatically earns 8% from these qualifying purchases. While visiting the site make sure to sign up for their free "Box Tops Booster Club" and see our school's earnings!

Recycle for the Rain Forest
Bring your empty inkjet/laser cartridges and old cell phones to school! Recycle for the Rainforest will pay us $1 to $15 per cartridge we collect! This will save 500 SQ. FT of Rainforest for every cartridge/cell phone we recycle in addition to what they pay us. Save your cartridges over the summer and bring them to school in the fall! Bring them in from home, the office, or collect them from friends or relatives. This is a great win-win-win for everyone. Just think, we get paid to save the rainforest by recycling! Recycle For The Rainforest raises money for schools and saves the rainforest one cartridge/cell phone at a time!
