Target's "Thanks a Billion" Campaign

Target started their "Thanks a Billion" Teacher Appreciation Campaign last week. Through this campaign, Target will donate up to $25,000 per participating school until their goal of $5 million is reached. Parents, friends, and loved ones, can help earn money for PCES by following a few simple steps. Per Target's terms and conditions for this campaign, you must have a Facebook page to participate.  

For each "Thank You" written and submitted through the "Thanks a Billion" site, Target will donate $25 to our school. You can write as many thank you notes as you want, but the first note is the only one that will provide a donation. 

Please follow these steps to write a thank you note and get a $25 donation for PCES:
1. visit http://thanksabillion.target.com this link may not work on our school computers since it has a fb access
2. select the "log in with Facebook" button

6. write a short thank you note - you can write it to a specific teacher or just a general note to the staff
7. use the hashtag #thanksabillion in your note (you can add it to the end)

This campaign ends June 15. Please encourage your family and friends with a facebook page to submit a thank you note for our school.
