TD Bank - Reminder - A FREE & SIMPLE FUNDRAISER

 
The PTA has joined TD Bank's Affinity Membership Program, which provides non-profit organizations the opportunity to earn annual cash contributions.  There is no cost to the PTA or our members.  Annually, the PTA receives a check directly from TD Bank equivalent to 1/2% of the annual average balances. 

The payout will have no effect on your account balance and your personal information is NOT shared with the PTA. The only data received by the PTA is the total number of households that are participating and the contribution calculation based on the total balance of all participants.

Open an account at any TD Bank location. New Accounts will be given a $25 bonus deposited into the new account.

 
Existing customers can participate.  Simply call the bank at 973-428-5107 and request that your accounts be linked to the PTA Program Code.
 
East Hanover PTA Affinity Program Code - A1211

RECYCLING NEWS


EH Central School is now enrolled in the My Coke Rewards Program. Through this program, points registered through the Coke site can be redeemed for school supplies.

There are two ways that one can help:
1) Register  at www.mycokerewards.com, log in the code from inside the Coke product bottle cap, Donate the points to Central School via the "Donate to your School" link; or
2) send the caps into school and deposit them into the bottle cap bucket in the cafeteria. The PTA will handle the rest.  Although the points are donated to Central School, any products received from redemption of the points will be distributed among all of the schools.

Also, check out the Recycling link to find out about all the other recycling programs in our schools.
