eScrip

Register your grocery cards, gas cards and/or debit or credit cards with eScrip, and a percentage of your purchase is donated to McPherson Magnet School by participating merchants.  eScrip's biggest local merchant partner is Vons/Pavilions, which gives back about 3% of purchases.  Other participating local merchants are Nordstrom’s, Staples, Dell, Claim Jumper OC Register and many more.  To register McPherson Magnet School as your educational beneficiary, log on to www.escrip.com, register yourself and any/all specific credit cards you may use to make purchases, and designate "McPherson Magnet School" ID# 137612026 as your educational beneficiary.  Each time you use the registered cards; ALL McPherson students receive benefits from your purchases.  eScrip profits are used for student supplies and educational support.  If you are already signed up for eScrip, don't forget to keep your credit card information current.  If your card expires, you need to notify eScrip or your donations will cease.  Remember, to have all your family and friends sign up and help support McPherson.

Box Tops for Education

Here's a really easy fundraiser. It only takes 2.3 seconds.     EVERYONE can participate, kids included.  All you have to do is collect box tops from participating General Mills products.  Each one is worth 10¢!  Everyone’s participation is helpful.

You can now download the Box Top application on your phone then scan or snap a photo of your receipt within 14 days of purchase. The earnings through the application are recognized immediately. Our school will get a check to spend on classroom supplies. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE STUDENT & TEACHER’S NAME UNDER “GIVE CREDIT MEMO.” If you have trouble scanning your receipts, please email Trinh Guevara, at trinhandcarlo@gmail.com a copy of the receipts immediately.  Physical Box Top clippings are being phased out of production but may continue to be found on many products throughout the stores. Drop off your clipped Box Tops to the front office. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THEM IN A ZIP LOCK BAG WITH STUDENT & TEACHER’S NAME.

Thank you for your support of the Box Tops Program and McPherson! If you have any questions, please email Trinh Guevara. Thanks again for all your help and support of our school. We couldn’t do it without you!  Trinh Guevara, Box Tops Coordinator,
