Fundraisers are an important part of any school, and we try to make them easy and purposeful.
Our ongoing fundraisers include:
Box Tops for Education: Gone are the days of cutting out physical box tops. Now you can just scan your paper or digital grocery store receipts into the Box Tops app to earn credit for FPS. Haven't done it before? No problem—it's easy! Just download the app and set up Furtah as your school to support. After you go shopping, scan the receipt in the app, and it will find all the Box Top items to give Furtah credit! Here's a link for more information: https://www.boxtops4education.com/s/get-the-app
Kroger Community Rewards: When you shop at Kroger, just swipe your shopper's card (or enter your number) at checkout. (Pro-Tip: Use the Kroger app to load digital coupons to your card before shopping.) Never set up an account or not sure if you chose Furtah Prep? You can find all the details here: https://www.kroger.com/i/community/community-rewards EXTRA CREDIT: Shop at Kroger and upload your receipt to Box Tops!
GaSSO (Georgia Student Scholarship Organization): Pledge a donation to FPS and fund it once approved. You get a tax CREDIT for your donation and your funds go right to FPS. (This is a bottom-line credit, not just a measly deduction, so talk to your tax professional to see how it would help you specifically.) These amounts are capped yearly by the state, so pledge now while it's still open. Learn more at https://georgiasso.com/faqs/
Corporate Donations/Matching: Please consider checking with your employer or major policies (like banks or insurance) to see if they make recurring or one-time donations on behalf of their constituents (either straight donations or matching donations). We are a non-profit 501(c)3 organization and can provide the necessary tax documentation for anyone making a donation.
We also offer periodic, one-time fundraisers throughout the school year. These may include Pizza Fridays, Dress Down Fridays, Restaurant Nights, Recycling Events, Craft Fairs, Bake Sales, and Art Nights. If you have a great fundraising idea, let us know!
