Letter: An easy way to donate to our schools

Letter

By on Fri, September 12, 2008

In checking my receipt from Safeway today I noticed a new section at the bottom of it with this web site:  http://backtoschools.escrip.com/  Also in the same section of the receipt is a number identifying the transaction.  When you go to the ‘backtoschools’ website all you need to do is to enter the name or zip code of the school you wish to donate to and the id number from your receipt for an amount equivalent to ten percent of your purchase to be donated to the school.  The deadline for entering the information is Oct. 13, 2008.  If we all do this the community can make a significant difference in our schools in the upcoming year.
