Participating schools will earn cash rewards based on Collin Creek Mall receipts turned in for their school.

• Kroger Neighbor-to-Neighbor Program - Kroger Grocery Store will donate back to Christie in recognition for loyal shoppers. Print THIS FORM and take it with you the next time you shop at Kroger and present it to the cashier at checkout along with your KrogerPlus card. You only have to do this once per year and no special enrollment is required.
• Write a Check Campaign - This is an ongoing fundraiser. While we appreciate your continued support with other fundraisers, we also provide you with a way to support the PTA without purchasing products. Please feel free to donate to the Christie PTA anytime of the year.

• Christie Yearbook - while the yearbook is not intended to raise money for our school, it does get listed as a fundraiser. We are also offering options to add one or two lines of text on the front of the book and icons as well (see order form for details). Yearbooks will be delivered to students at the end of the school year (a date will be announced in May 2011). Extra yearbooks will be sold on a first come, first served basis. We do not order many extras since we are required to pre-pay for what we order. Contact yearbook@christie-pta.org to send photos for the yearbook or with questions.
