Help Raise Funds for Our School!
Did you know that at Horizon there are a variety of ways to help earn money for our school’s PTA? Yep, that’s right, it is so easy to do, and oftentimes it's FREE! Simply clipping labels off of certain groceries that you already purchase, or swiping a rewards card where you already shop, or when you shop on Amazon.com, you can help us raise money for our school! And you can earn even more by asking your friends and neighbors to do the same. Each year the PTA also raises money by hosting our super fun, one-and-only annual fundraiser - the Horizon Hustle Fun Run. We also host Family Spirit Nights at local restaurants, where you get to come buy dinner for your family and the restaurant donates a portion of the proceeds during the event to our PTA. Learn more about all of these fundraisers below.
Donate for the Hustle Here
The Hustle is our school's ONLY major fundraiser, and we get to keep 100% of the proceeds. Each year we raise funds in September and October to help our school buy supplies, materials and equipment, which in turn helps our students reach their potential. For the Hustle, students get to run laps during the Fun Run during a school day to earn money with each lap they run. Information about the Hustle will be sent home soon. We are looking for Corporate Sponsors! For more information about becoming a sponsor, contact us at hrzn.pta@gmail.com. A list of the local companies who graciously supported our PTA as sponsors last year is copied below.

Amazon Smile Rewards
Amazon donates 0.5% of the price of your eligible AmazonSmile purchases to the charitable organization of your choice - in our case that is the Horizon Elementary PTA! AmazonSmile is the same Amazon you know and love. Same products, same prices, same service. This new program just lets you support our PTA while buying Amazon products you already buy. Remember, always start at smile.amazon.com and Amazon will donate 0.5% of the price of your eligible AmazonSmile purchases.
Box Tops for Education
General Mills has partnered with several companies to offer this wonderful program to help schools raise cash. Over the years, more than $525 million has been given to more than 90,000 K-8 schools. Box Tops coupons are found on hundreds of your favorite food and paper products. Each Box Tops coupon is worth 10 cents for our school. Horizon families raised more than $3,000 with Box Tops just last year! It's so easy to do! When the products you already buy have a Box Tops logo on them, just clip around the Box Top coupon, being careful not to trim off the expiration date. Place Box Tops in an envelope or plastic bag or attach Box Tops to this cool form you can print, and return them to your child's teacher. (The form does not have to be full to turn in. We will take any Box Tops we can get, and the more the merrier!)

Horizon is a Publix Partner in Education
The PTA passed out small key tag cards at open house to all parents for use at Publix, and you can pick up extra cards at the kiosk at the front of the store. Each time you shop at Publix, simply have your cashier scan your Publix key card. A percentage of your total will be given back to Horizon. It's that easy! And this donation adds up quickly. Plus, the more people you can get to use the key cards at check out (Hint Hint - pass them our to your friends and neighbors), the more money Publix gives to our school.
If you are in need of a Publix key card, please email Jenny Fleming at jenny.fleming@yahoo.com. She will send it home with your child.
