Exploris families welcome back and Happy 2016.

Thanks to your support, Exploris is slated to receive $645.50 from our November Boxtops submission. Way to go! It’s hard to believe but our next submission deadline is just around the corner. Please continue to collect and send in your Boxtops. The deadline to turn in for the March 1 submission is Friday, February 19, 2016.

Kroger and Harris Teeter shoppers have also been busy funneling reward program donations to Exploris. We recently heard from Kroger and Exploris will receive $264.49 next month for the shopping cycle ending November 30, 2015. An Exploris supporter who uses the Harris Teeter Express Lane option also netted $50. Regular donations from Harris Teeter VIC card customers are accumulating and will arrive at the end of the school year.

We must also pass along recent correspondence from Target. The current REDcard Take Charge of Education program is ending as of May 14, 2016. Qualifying REDcard purchases made through that date will continue to accumulate and count towards a final payout after the program ends.

Finally, our next opportunity to submit Labels of Education Bonus Points is coming up. Any family that is collecting Labels for Education should turn those in by this FRIDAY, JANUARY 8, 2016.
