Free Money for the Charger Band!

Looking for an easy ways to give back to the band just by shopping? See below!  These merchants give money directly to the band when you make purchases, so no money comes out of your pocket.

These programs continue throughout the year. Use them every time you shop.

AMAZON

Amazon AssociatesThe first is the Amazon Associates program. Basically, if you are going to buy anything from Amazon, you can raise money for the band by accessing Amazon through our link instead of going directly to amazon.com. Just click on the Amazon box on the right side of this website. When you do this Amazon will donate a percentage of your purchase amount to the band.

PLEASE NOTE:  If you are not seeing the Amazon link on the right, make sure that you do not have any ad blocker software running that may be blocking it.

Imagine how much we can raise if everyone does their back-to-school and holiday shopping using our link!

KROGER

KrogerThe next program is the Kroger Community Rewards Program.  If you enroll your Kroger Plus card in the program and use it when you check out, Kroger will donate a percentage of your purchase amount to the band. Easy!

If everyone participates, we can easily exceed our goal of $2000 this year!

If you have been enrolled in the Kroger community Rewards program in previous years, please take a moment to re-enroll. Everyone must re-enroll every year. The year end for the program is August 30. If you have not re-enrolled already, you are not currently contributing to the band program. You should have received an email from Kroger that allows for a simple one click re-enrollment.

If this is new to you, please consider enrolling – it’s easy money. Kroger Community Rewards® makes supporting the Clear Springs Charger Band students super easy.  All you have to do is shop at Kroger and swipe your Kroger Plus Card and Kroger will donate a percentage of your receipt to the band at no cost to you. First, you need to enroll your Kroger Plus Card in the community rewards program by following the instructions below.

  1. Visit Kroger Community Rewards
  2. Sign in or create an account
  3. Enter the organization name / number:  Clear Springs H.S. Band Booster / KX722

GIVE-BACK PROGRAMS

Several local businesses offer special ways in which they can partner with customers to give back to the community. Places like Chili’s, Panera, and Chipotle send a portion of their procedes from participating customers back to the band. Keep an eye on your inbox  for the places that will give back to the Charger Band. If there’s a flyer, share it with everyone you know! Some places require the flyer in order to participate, others allow a digital version. See each flyer for details. Please help us get the word out and spread the love while satisfying your hunger!

Amazon’s Prime Day is almost here! Deals start July 16, 3pm ET and run through July 17. Prime Day is one of the biggest shopping events of the year and a great time for you to support the Clear Springs Charger Band simply by shopping at smile.amazon.com or by clicking the Amazon ad on our website (you may need to adjust your ad-blocker settings to see the ad.)

The biggest give-back comes when you click the Amazon ad on our homepage. When accessing Amazon through the link found on the right of your screen, you are allowing the band to earn up to 10% in referral fees from Amazon, and it doesn’t cost you a penny! If you do not see the ad or if the ad does not redirect you to Amazon when clicked then you may need to disable your ad-blocker for the Charger Band website.

AmazonSmile is another simple and automatic way for you to support your Charger Band every time you shop, at no cost to you.

Since June, we have been able to raise over $500 through this program. Our goal is $1,000 for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2018. We can blow this goal out of the water if everyone will go to Amazon through the band website. Remember the more we can bring in with fundraisers such as this, the more we can do for our kids and the more we can lower next year’s band fees.
