EASY & REWARDING FUNDRAISING FOR CALIFORNIA HIGH
Dear Cal High Families and Staff, Thank you for your generous and ongoing support of our school. Your efforts and contributions give our students the opportunities and resources for a more enriching high school experience. To this end, we're excited to introduce a new fundraising program called CaliforniaHS Rewards. With increasing pressure on our budget, we have been looking for ways toraise money throughout the year that require less effort for students, parents, and staff. We found all of those things in California HS Rewards With this program, every online purchase made at any of more than 600 participating retailers made through California HS Rewards earns money for our school as well as for you, as the shopper. All you need to do differently is that when you shop online, go first to CaliforniaHSRewards.com. The online shopping that you already do at a wide variety of department stores, travel, home improvement and many more sites can benefit you and our school. You may keep your rewards for yourself, or you may donate them to our school to help with supplies, uniforms, arts programming, special events and more. Some of you may have already signed up for this program at registration, thank you. The site is now live, and we are launching the program today with this message. If you haven't registered yet, please visit CaliforniaHSRewards.com as soon as possible. This platform is only available to high schools, so we hope that participation will spread throughout our entire attendance feeder area. Please share with your friends, family, and neighbors. Thank you in advance for your support and let the shopping (and fundraising) begin! Sincerely Mark Corti, Principal California High School AVID SENIORS GET ACCEPTED!
