Clipping Cash!
Each of those little pink squares may be worth only 10 cents, but they add up quickly. During the 2015-16 school year, Ridgecroft earned more than $1000 from Box Tops for Education! The PTO used that money to provide teachers with classroom equipment like LCD projectors, file cabinets, and much more. So, keep clipping!

Turn your Groceries into Greenbacks!
You can help Ridgecroft just by doing your usual grocery shopping. Buy Food Lion gift cards from Cindy Burgess in the business office and Ridgecroft will receive 5% of your total purchase.
