We also have numerous on-going FUNd raisers, including the Shop with Scrip program, Greencycling, Good Search, Good Shop, and a recycling program here at the school. Shop with Scrip is simply buying Gift Cards through the Scrip program to places you shop anyway, such as groceries, fuel, restaurants, etc., and they donate a percentage of those sales back to the school. Greencycling is an on-line shopping site, http://www.greencycling.com/ (you must designate AVCS as the beneficiary), where you can buy recycled gift wrap, steel water bottles, steel snack containers, reusable bags, reusable sandwich wrap mats, backpacks, and much more. Every time you shop, Greencycling donates 25% of the sale back to the school. Good Search is an on-line search engine, just designate AVCS as the beneficiary, and every time you do an on-line search one cent is donated to the school. It doesn’t sound like much, but it adds up quickly. Good Shop lets you shop at most on-line stores and donates a percentage of those sales back to the school, just be sure to designate AVCS as your beneficiary first. For recycling purposes, we have trash cans set up in the lunch room and on the play ground marked for recycling of cans, plastic, and Capri Sun bags. Please encourage your children to use these bins to help the school and help our planet.
