Ways to Support Wedgwood Coop

Fundraising

There are several ways to participate in Fundraising at Wedgwood Cooperative Preschool!
​
Our biggest fundraising events are:
​
1) Fall Coffee, Tea, and T-shirt Sales
We partnered again with Seattle-based coffee roasting company Caffé Umbria (caffeumbria.com) and tea with Rishi (rishi-tea.com), an organic and direct trade tea company. This year we will also be selling Wedgwood Coop T-shirts. This fundraiser will run from October 26th through December 4th, 2020. For more information, go to https://www.auctria.com/auction/wedgwoodcoffeeandtea2020.
​
​2) The Spring Silent Auction

This is our most important and popular fundraising event. Items are donated from our community and solicited from local businesses. This year the auction will be online again and will be open for bidding from Monday April 19th- Thursday April 22nd. 

For those seeking donations from local businesses, know that they often require requests to be made well in advance. If you know what you would like to donate, or if you would like to approach a local talent, service or business about an auction now, below is the online procurement form and an “Ask Letter” you can use:

Programs

Fundraise as you shop:

1) Fred Meyer: Link your Fred Meyers Reward card. You still get the rewards, but Wedgwood gets a portion.

If you would please register your Fred Meyer card we would really appreciate it.  We can earn a percentage of their annual school donations depending on the amount of qualifying purchases are made there with reward cards registered to Wedgwood Cooperative Preschool. The steps are very simple and just require you to enter your contact information, group ID and your card number.  

The group ID for Fred Meyer is 80880
 www.fredmeyer.com/communityrewards

2) Primary.com: Shop through our school link and 10% of your order will go to Wedgwood Cooperative Preschool. Plus new customers get 20% off first order with code WEDGWOOD. There should be a banner at the bottom of the page every time you shop letting you know the school is getting the funds.
Simply shop through this link: URL: www.primary.com/school/wedgwood

3) Benefit App Gift cards: You buy gift certificates through the app, then use them to shop or share the gift card. Our school gets a percentage of everything you buy from their very, very long list of retailers. (REI, Lowe’s, Starbucks, Safeway, The North Face, Gap, Nordstrom’s, Amazon, just to name a few.)

​Thank you everyone for participating in our fundraising efforts this year!

Financial Support 

As a non-profit organization Wedgwood Cooperative preschool also accepts and greatly appreciates any tax deductible donations. Our treasurer will send you a receipt with our tax ID number for your records.

If you would like to make a tax deductible donation, please send a check made payable to Wedgwood Cooperative Preschool, with "Scholarship Fund Donation" on the memo line of the check and send to:
All School Treasurer Wedgwood Cooperative Preschool, 8208 18th Ave NE, Seattle, WA 98115

Many large employers offer to match your charitable donations. This can double the value of gifts and donations from co-op friends and family. Families who make donations to Wedgwood Cooperative preschool should first check whether their employer will match their donation. 


Ways to Support PAC (Parent Advisory Council)


Support the Scholarship Fund 
The NSC Cooperative Preschool PAC Scholarship Fund provides financial assistance to families who need help paying for preschool. Qualifying families may receive up to 50% of their co-op tuition costs.
​
Each year, around 80 families, or 10% of our co-op population are helped in this way. 100% of the money raised for the scholarship fund goes to tuition assistance. Our requests for scholarship funds continue to increase each year.

We will add new ways and update the ways to support Wedgwood and PAC directly on this page.

The largest portion of fundraising at Wedgwood Coop goes to scholarships through the Parent Advisory Council (PAC), or in-house scholarships at Wedgwood. PAC represents 42 preschools and provides scholarships to approximately 10% of cooperative families in the system.

Wedgwood fundraising is also used to enrich the programs for our students and update our equipment.
