Kellogg School Earns More Than $3,000 in E-Scrip Program
The Kellogg School PTA in Goleta has been named one of the top 200 earning groups nationally in Vons’ “10% Goes Back to Schools” program.
As one of the top 200 groups, Kellogg School has received an additional $1,000 from Vons, for a total of $3,045.51.
The Kellogg PTA will use the funds to support teaching staff and consultants specializing in computers, science, art and music.
The “10% Goes Back to Schools” program allowed schools to earn 10 percent of the purchase price on items purchased by school supporters from participating manufacturers last summer.
Top Safeway manufacturers contributing to Kellogg School through the program included Kraft Foods, Clorox, Kellogg’s, General Mills, Sara Lee, Pepsi, Frito Lay and Unilever.
In 2009, through this program alone, the Safeway family of stores has donated more than $3.4 million to nonprofit groups across the nation.
In addition to the “10% Goes Back to Schools” program, the eScrip program delivers marketing programs that bring retailers, manufacturers and service providers forward in support of education of youths. To date, the eScrip program has generated more than $220 million in merchant contributions to schools and organizations across the country.

Your time and commitment to this project has paid off. During this time of serious school district budget cuts, I know your children, teachers and specialists thank you for your efforts! I can empathize as I’m the e-scrip coordinator at Vieja Valley School. Congratulations to Kellogg School for a great fundraising job!

I graduated from Kellogg’s kindergarten department. I miss you guys! You guys rock! My homeroom teacher that time was Ms. Bowen. I miss her, too! I am now in Taiwan studying, and having fun! I miss kindergarten! I miss America! :)
