$FREE MONEY$$

In addition to the fundraisers that are sent home with students the WMSA has many ongoing fundraisers that just require a little time and effort on your part.

By collecting and turning in Cambells Soup Labels, General Mills Box Tops, Capri Sun drink pouches, Lees Receipts and Shaws Receipts the WMSA will receive additional funding from the store or manufacturer.

WMSA will be sponsoring a "Lees Receipt House Competition." Students are asked to bring Lees receipts into homeroom from Nov 1st until the Thanksgiving break. Last year over $1800.00 was raised through the Lees Receipts program.

New this year is the Stop and Shop A+ Bonus Bucks. Simply go to www.stopandshop.com/aplus to register your Stop & Shop Card number or call (877) 275-2578 and WMSA will earn cash on your purchases. This program will run from October 9, 2009 thru March 25, 2010.

Encourage family and friends to help in collecting labels, boxtops, receipts etc to benefit your childs school.

Enjoy your summer! See you in September 2010
