Orinda Mom wins an Ipod Touch in an eScrip fundraising Holiday Contest

March 16, 2010 - PRLog -- Miramonte Parent Cindy Barber did her normal shopping at Diablo Foods and Safeway this past Christmas Holiday (December 2009 and January 2010) and it resulted in the top two-month net contribution of $91.06, which went back to the Miramonte Parents’ Club budget.

“This is one of the easiest ways to help a group that means something to you.  And I have to go to the grocery store several times a week anyway, so why not make it count,” said Barber.

Cindy is the mother of two daughters; the oldest is now a junior in college. The youngest is a senior at Miramonte High School.  Cindy has been a card carrying eScrip member for over 10 years since her children were in elementary school.  She continued her eScrip renewals each August and reviewed her activity reports online as her children went through middle school, high school and off to college.

“While I used to have my contributions going to more than one group, i have had 100% going to Miramonte for about the last four years. We really value education and I know the District has been struggling,” she said.

THE BARBER FAMILY HAS CONTRIBUTED $ 526.87 BACK TO THE SCHOOLS SINCE JAN 2009

Cindy and her husband Brad have registered their Debit Visa at www.eScrip.com and seen tremendous results. They can shop locally with registered Safeway Club Cards, or their Debit/Credit cards, and/or shop online at the eScrip Online Mall.  They have never experienced any problems with the eScrip organization or their online cards and they have seen tremendous earnings.  

Barber will win an Ipod Touch valued at $199.99.  By purchasing the Ipod Touch through the eScrip Online Mall, the Parents’ Club was able to contribute $4.78 back to Miramonte.

The Miramonte Parents’ Club held the contest from November 23rd- January 31st to raise awareness of the program. The contest was promoted in the weekly Matador News emails and on the Miramonte website under Parents’ Club>Support MHS>eScrip.
