23-24 Invest in Your Fundraising 

Fundraising is not our favorite, but it's a necessity to have money to do all the amazing things PTA does for every student at Ridgeview.  Here are the fundraising opportunities for this school year:

Our primary fundraiser is called "Invest in your Roadrunner" and generates the majority of the funds for our annual budget.  This year, our funding drive will take place late September. The event will get students moving & being physically active while earning money for school & prizes for themselves.  This is a much healthier alternative to selling candy or cookie dough & much more fun than trash bags or coupons!  However, we will always accept flat donations made directly to the PTA any time of the year.  These donations can be made through our Square Site by clicking here, or checks made out to the Ridgeview PTA can be dropped off at the RV Office.

We also partner with several local restaurants throughout the school year for Restaurant Nights.  On certain nights, specific restaurants will give a portion of their sales back to the PTA.  Traditionally, we have worked with CiCi's, Culver's, McDonald's, Raising Cane's, & Icebergs just to name a few.  We always look forward to expanding our partnerships with other local favorites, so if you have connections to any particular restaurant, please notify the PTA through email.  Check the PTA Calendar for dates.

As the PTA continues our partnership with Northland Rolladium for school Skating Parties, we're also working with other local businesses for other fun events such as Above All Trampoline Park & Get Nerfed.  A portion of sales these nights also goes back to help our PTA- what a fun way to earn money!  Check the PTA Calendar for dates.

The Box Tops program is an extremely easy way you can help the PTA.  Download the Box Tops App & select Ridgeview as your school.  Shop for groceries as you normally would, but consider buying certain brands that participate in Box Tops.  After you check out, simply scan your receipt with the Box Tops App and the PTA earns $.10 per Box Top item.  It doesn't sound like much, but it adds up!  And anyone can help- ask your friends & family to do the same, regardless if they live in Liberty or out of state! 

Finally, HyVee Dollar$ for $cholar$ is another easy way you can help earn money for Ridgeview.  Simply shop at the Liberty or Gladstone HyVees & then turn in your receipts to the RV Office.  We earn $100 for every $1500 we spend collectively as a school family.  ANY HyVee sale counts- groceries, dry cleaning, prescriptions, catering, alcohol, tobacco, convenient store sales, HyVee restaurants/Wahlburgers/Caribu Coffee, basically anything except gasoline purchases.

We hope this gives you a good overview of what to expect from fundraising this year.  It can feel overwhelming and we don’t want families to feel burdened by many requests to spend money.  We hope you’ll remember that EVERY Ridgeview student benefits from the activities sponsored by PTA and that you’ll find your optimal combination of fundraising events to support.  With your support of the PTA, you can help the students at Ridgeview have an exciting year.  Together We Grow.
