1) Fundraiser efforts continue!

Amazon Smile – ANYONE that places Amazon orders via the following link will have 0.5% of the order donated to PTA of PS175

https://smile.amazon.com/ch/35-2400667

Anyone can use the link – spread this on social media, tell friends and family. You must enter the shortcut BEFORE placing the order – bookmark or integrate to Chrome with the Smile Always plugin. While there’s no substitute for shopping local, if you do business with Amazon, why not get some back for the community?

2) Spring Flowers/Bulbs/Seeds direct-ship fundraiser

PTA has partnered with Flower Power Fundraising to direct-ship flower seeds, bulbs, rooted plants and sprouting kits now that warmer weather is around the corner.

50% of order totals come back to PTA of PS175. Anyone can purchase – spread this on social media, tell friends and family. More affordable/non-perishable flat-rate shipping makes this no-contact fundraiser painless. Put a little extra color in your life.
