Ongoing School Fundraisers

Smiths

Attention Smith's Shoppers!(Even occasional Smith’s shoppers)
 
Smith’s *definitely* requires re-enrollment each year to earn funds for the school – BUT – they’ve made it easier.

  • Please print and bring the letter (with barcode) to the store with you next time you shop.
  • Have the checkout clerk scan this barcode
  • You should be re-enrolled as supporting Family School for the year!

Or, if you prefer, you can designate our school on the Smith’s website:
 http://www.smithsfoodanddrug.com

 

Albertsons

Attention Albertson’s shoppers!
 
Albertson’s wants to play, too, so they have recently revamped their educational support program.  They do not require a shopping rewards membership to earn credit for the school. They have recently supplied us with plastic “key ring cards” to use. Shoppers can simply scan this card before their purchase to earn credit.
 
So, even if you are only an occasional Albertson’s shopper, please stop by the front office to pick up your plastic key ring card that is pre-set with Family School’s information.  The cards will be in a small basket next to our boxtops collection box.

 

Target

Target RedCard shoppers
 
Please check to see that you are enrolled in Target’s support program – “Take Charge of Education”.  We are in there as “Desert Willow Family School”

ALBUQUERQUE, NM 87110
