We just received the latest quarter statement from the Ralphs Community Contributions program. $331 is coming to help fund the music programs, assemblies etc. which PTA helps pay for. The $331 certainly helps, but take into account that the total is based on the 20 Ralphs shoppers who bothered to sign up for the program. There are over 400 families here at  Emerson which of course doesn’t take into account relatives, neighbors and co-workers who could also have registered their cards to help fund our PTA. Imagine how big that number could have been if 100 or 200 or 300 families had taken a minute or two to register their cards. Vons/Pavillions also has a similar program through escrip.com.

The good news is it’s not too late to sign up. You can either fill in the form below and turn it in, or you can register online. Either way is easy and doesn’t cost you a dime.
