Are you just too busy to volunteer in the classroom? All these fundraisers too overwhelming? Here is your way to help our school without doing anything different or spending extra money! Check out the attached fliers on how to link your Kroger Reward card so that each time you go to the grocery, Kroger donates a portion of your bill right to Piqua Catholic. PLUS, some of the groceries you buy have Box Top labels on them and once you download their App, and scan the codes, then Box Top donates to our school as well! Every little bit helps, especially right before the holidays! Contact the school if you have any questions and thank you for your support!
