“The role of education is to interest the child profoundly in an external activity to which he will give all of this potential.”

~ Maria Montessori 



Dear Villa Montessori Parents,

We need your help with fundraising to support the purchase of additional classroom and playground materials. This year we will focus on three ways of fundraising that are the least time consuming for you yet earn the most return for the school. All three of these programs allocate to Villa a percentage of purchases that you make at stores where you may already shop with no extra costs to you.

eScrip: Register your credit / debit cards at www.escrip.com . Designate up to two different schools to benefit from your purchases. When you make purchases with your registered cards at participating stores, a percentage of the purchase amount is allocated to the schools that you designated. If you have registered with eScrip in previous years, remember that you must renew your registration annually. Please note that if you shop at Safeway with a Safeway card, you must register your Safeway card as well (and renew your registration annually). Villa Montessori’s eScrip ID number is 500017257.

amazon.com: When you shop at Amazon, a percentage of your purchases may be allocated to Villa if you shop through our Amazon portal: http://astore.amazon.com/villamontessori-20 .
You can shop on our site or click on the “POWERED BY amazon.com” link to shop at amazon.com. Villa will receive a portion of the purchases that you make at amazon.com only if you access amazon.com by clicking using the Amazon portal listed above.

Target’s REDcard: If you don’t already have a REDcard, apply for a Target Visa Credit Card, Target Credit Card, or Target Check Card in store or at Target.com/redcard . Go to Target.com/tcoe or call 1-800-316-6142 to designate Villa Montessori to receive a percentage of your purchases made with your Target Card. Villa Montessori’s Target REDcard ID number is 20978.

Please participate in these programs, and encourage your friends and family to do the same, so that Villa can continue to give children the best experience though the use of Montessori materials.
For additional information, please inquire with the current Board Members.

Thank you,
Villa Montessori Board of Directors
