My Coke Rewards For Schools

Share the holiday spirit and help us reward our students

Each time 5 My Coke Rewards members donate points to our school, we’ll get 100 Bonus Points that we can use for sports gear, classroom supplies and more. These Bonus Points are only up for grabs until 12/31, so let’s get to it.

Start by picking up codes when you’re enjoying the holidays with family, friends and refreshing Coca-Cola drinks. Then, get into the spirit of giving when you enter each code and donate the points to our school. All those points can help students have a healthier, more active lifestyle that allows them to thrive and grow.

Here's How To Help:
1. Purchase your favorite participating Coca-Cola drinks for the holidays to get codes.
2. Go to mycokerewards.com (register if you’re not a member).
3. Enter codes to get your points – choose “Donate to Your School” from the “6 ways to spend points.”
4. Find our school’s page by ZIP code or State/City – then click “Donate Points Now” to enter your donation amount.
5. Spread the word! The more people that participate, the more our school benefits – with up to 1000

This assembly is valued at $300 but we can get it free compliments of Communities That Care and Most Don't if we have 20 families from our school commit to and complete the Guiding Good Choices Workshop.

Children are welcome!!!
