Amazon Smile

• Shop through Amazon Smile and the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the price of eligible purchases to the charitable organizations selected by customers.  When first visiting AmazonSmile, customers are prompted to select a charitable organization from almost one million eligible organizations. In order to browse or shop at AmazonSmile, customers must first select “McNear Elementary PTA.” For eligible purchases at AmazonSmile, the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the purchase price to the customer’s selected charitable organization.

Box Tops

• Look for box tops on specially marked packages and bring them to the office at school. Each box top is worth 10 cents for McNear. The Box Top Coordinator will send in the box tops in Fall and Spring.
• Visit the Box Tops for Education website for a complete list of participating products.

Dine and Donate

• It’s a simple set-up that businesses have come to love, because McNear is well known for coming out in droves. On a given day, patrons shop or eat at the designated business, and for each flier they receive, they donate a percentage of the sales back to the school.

Jogathon

• Every fall each students are given 20 minutes on the track to run as many laps as they can, earning money as they go (they solicit donations in advance—both flat fee and per lap). This is McNear’s second largest fundraiser and a super fun event for the kids.

Wish Benefit

• In the spring, parents come together at some location to bid in both silent and live auctions, enter into raffles, enjoy food and entertainment, and especially mingle with other adults. This is by far McNear’s largest fundraiser and a GREAT community event.
