VCAA Fundraising!

Hello fellow VCAA families!
Here is a new way you can EASILY help with fundraising at VCAA
RIGHT NOW!...
it only requires the following:
* YOU MUST EAT FOOD (now that one is an easy one!)
* YOU MUST SHOP AT RALPH'S (another easy one!)
* YOU MUST HAVE A RALPH'S REWARDS CARD (or get one!)
(another really easy one... by the way, if you are like me and you always use your phone number...you will have to either dig out the card from the junk drawer in the kitchen or simply call 800-660-9003 and they will give you the Rewards Card number that you have linked to your phone number!)
 
If you have "met" all of the above requirements then please help us by registering your Ralph's Reward Card with the Community Program at Ralphs! and VCAA will receive a donation as a result of your shopping! This will not affect your regular rewards.  Signing up is easy...just follow these instructions!
 
Thanks for your participation!  Let's make some extra $$$ for VCAA!
And remember to ALWAYS use your Rewards card or linked phone number EVERY time you shop at Ralph's!  (Even if you don't think you have any "rewards" prices and therefore see no need to use the card...still swipe it or use your phone number... because we will still get a donation from your shopping!)
 
THANKS!  THANKS!  THANKS!  (P.S.  Got questions?  See below for some of the common questions and answers regarding the program!)

NEWS FLASH!  If you need help registering for this we will do our best to help you at the field during our on-site Spring Registration day on November 22!  Just bring your Ralph's Reward Card with you...or call the number above to get your number!   SIGN-UP TODAY!  I KNOW YOU WILL BE DOING YOUR THANKSGIVING DAY MEAL SHOPPING SOON...! Here's how!

     Common Questions and Answers: 

Question: Can I give to more than one organization at a time? Answer: Only one organization can be contributed to at a time. However, if you choose to give to two organizations, please change your NPO designation after 6 months and then you can give to one organization for six months and the other for six months.

 

Question: After I sign-up my Ralphs rewards Card with an organization, how long before my purchases start counting towards the rebate? Answer: Your purchases will begin counting for your designated organization within 72 hours of signing up your card online (after the beginning date of the Term).

 

Question: How do I know my card is registered? Answer: After you successfully register your card, you will get a confirmation page letting you know that your registration was successful. It’s always a good idea to print this page and keep it for your records. Also, just look on your receipt and you will see ‘At your Request, Ralphs is donating to ‘your organization name’.

 

Question: Does everything in my shopping cart count towards my donation to my organization?

Answer: Supporters can earn donations on almost every thing, every time they shop! However, there are specific items that cannot be included such as purchases of alcohol, tobacco, pharmacy, postage stamps, gift cards, gift certificates, lottery and promotional tickets, fluid milk and milk products, fuel, CRV and Sales Tax.

Question: How much does my organization earn?

Answer: The ‘Term’ beginning 9/1/08 through 8/31/09 is based on a sliding scale of household monthly purchases as follows:

Up to $200 per month of eligible purchases 1% Between $200.01 and $350 per month of eligible purchases 2% of amount over $200 Between $350.01 and $500 per month of eligible purchases 3% of amount over $350

Over $500 per month of eligible purchases 4% of amount over $500

Ralphs Rewards Community Contributions limits their quarterly contributions to a maximum of $750,000 to be distributed among all participating eligible organizations, and $150 per individual Rewards Card or household. In the event that total earned contributions exceed the maximum contribution limit, Ralphs will prorate and reduce the contributions based on the total contributions earned by all participating organizations and their members.

 

Question: Why do my members have to re-register if they were already participating prior to September 2008?

Answer: The Community Contributions Program is evaluated every year and changes are considered based on the success of the program. By making a one year commitment to Ralphs, Ralphs is also making a one year commitment to you, the organization and your members. It also gives each organization an opportunity refresh their membership by spreading the word to new members and keeping the previous members informed about any changes to the program
