Asda - Cashpot For Schools - September 2024

The Belmont FOBS Team has some very exciting news to share with you!!! Parentkind – a charity that supports school PTAs - have teamed up with Asda, who is making millions of pounds available to donate to primary schools across the UK through their ‘Cashpot for Schools’ initiative. To support our PTA Friends of Belmont School (FOBS), all you have to do is opt-in through the Asda Rewards app, choose our school, shop and scan in store or shop online at Asda.com.

 

Until 30 November 2024 (that's 71 days) – EVERY TIME you shop with Asda using your Asda Rewards app, Asda will donate 0.5% of the value of your shop to your chosen Primary school. Also, every time somebody opts-in to support our Primary school, Asda will give an additional £1 to the school Cashpot. Plus, it doesn’t stop there – Asda are also giving £50 to every school to get them started.

 

It’s as easy as 1,2,3...

1. Download the Asda Rewards app, register and opt-in to Cashpot for Schools (make sure you have the latest version of the app installed)

 

2. Choose our Primary School (Belmont Community Primary School)  – either searching by name or by postcode (NG31 9LR)

 

3. Shop instore across Asda and George, or online at Asda.com and start filling your Cashpot as you shop

 

Asda does the rest, all money raised will be donated to schools to spend on the things they need the most.

 

We are aiming to use our donations towards the complete revamp of the KS2 playground/trim trail!

 

Remember, anyone can sign up – so start spreading the news and raising funds for our school!

 

This initiative is on top of the existing Asda Rewards benefits you get as a shopper – so you won’t lose out on any of your own earnings or Cashpot, so everyone is a winner!

We Need You!

Currently, the FOBS Team consists of a small group of parents. We desperately need more members to ensure that we can continue to do the activities necessary in order to raise essential funds for the school.

 

A few of the FOBS Team members hold an official position and/or are Charity Trustees, as this is required by the Charity Commission for the smooth and legal running of our charity. However, this is totally optional and anyone can become a FOBS member or volunteer regardless of whether you’ll have an official position or not. We welcome all parents, relatives and local community members to join us in our endeavour to create unforgettable events and activities for all Belmont children while enhancing the school’s facilities.

 

If you would like more information or have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to contact us either via email fobs@belmont.lincs.sch.uk or via the contact form on the main FOBS page.
