​GENERAL FUNDRAISERS

​AMAZON SMILE
&
​KROGER COMMUNITY REWARDS
Picture
General Fundraisers benefit the entire organization rather than individual students.  Amazon Smile and Kroger Community Rewards are two programs we use as general fundraisers.  In both of these programs you shop like you normally do, and as long as you scan your Kroger card or shop through smile.amazon.com, a percentage of your money spent will go back to our organization automatically.  It's super easy and costs you nothing!  All you need to do is link your Kroger card to our organization, link your amazon smile account to our organization, and always be sure to shop at smile.amazon.com
CLICK HERE for Amazon Smile sign-up instructions, then click the button below to sign-up.
CLICK HERE for Kroger Community Rewards sign-up instructions, then click the button below to sign-up.

HOOSIER SHOW CHOIR CLASSIC
The Hoosier Show Choir Classic (HSCC) is a showchoir contest that we host at FCHS.  This is one of our organization's largest general fundraisers, and we will need lots of help.  Please mark your calendar for Feb 26-27, 2021, and be ready to sign-up later this year to help out!
