Fund the Parent Association through Shopping Programs that Give Back

Aidan Montessori School participates in several programs that will raise money for the school at absolutely no cost to its families. We raised over $2,000 last year as a result of Aidan family Amazon and grocery purchases and participation in the Box Tops for Education. Parents, teachers, friends and families are encouraged to participate!

The programs we're linked with include:

  • Box Tops for Education - The "Box Tops" logo is on packages of some of your favorite brands—Ziploc, Avery office products, Betty Crocker, and many more. Clip off squares, fill up a worksheet or zip lock bag and bring them to Aidan's lobby for drop off. We will redeem each square for $0.10. Every little bit helps!
  • Amazon Smile - Do you shop on Amazon? Consider shopping through the AmazonSmile site (https://smile.amazon.com/ch/52-0746156). Please make Aidan Montessori school your charity of choice and remember to keep doing your shopping through Amazon starting at this address: smile.amazon.com. When setting this up, know that you will not be asked to create a new account. When first visiting AmazonSmile, you will be prompted to select a charitable organization. Please choose Aidan Montessori School. For eligible purchases at AmazonSmile, the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the purchase price to the customer's selected charitable organization. Last year we raised over $1,100 through your Amazon purchases. Remember that you must shop through AmazonSmile and any items already sitting in your shopping cart will not count. It's the most beneficial way to spend money and make money for Aidan. Thank you for shopping!
