Grocery Cards:
The Barton Hills Elementary PTA’s grocery card program is our most pain-free fundraiser. If you shop for groceries, you can raise money for our school. It is convenient, easy, and at no cost to you!

How does it work? Our PTA purchases gift cards from HEB and Randalls and sells them at cost to parents, teachers and neighbors. The grocery stores then make a contribution to our school, typically 3–4% of the card value, so it doesn’t cost you a thing!

Here’s how to get started:

• Click here to download an enrollment form, or get one in the school office.
  
• Choose card denominations of $50 and/or $100 from HEB/Central Market and/or Randalls—as many cards as you like.
  
• Choose to Auto Draft from your bank account. The draft is made on the 1st of the month, which is the same day you get your card(s)!
  
  Or, you may write a check each month. It is due on the 20th and deposited sometime between the 20th and the 1st.
  
• Bring your completed enrollment form to the front office.
  
• Pick up your cards before or after school on the 1st of the month from Tonya Cook at the triangle next to the office.
  
• You can cancel or change your purchase at any time during the year by contacting Tom Campbell.

Please enroll in the grocery card program. Last year this program raised $4,300 for our school—money that directly impacts each student. Raising money for Barton Hills is as easy as doing your weekly grocery shopping…all at no cost to you!

Thank you for supporting Barton Hills Elementary School!
