Fundraisers
What can you do to help? There are several EASY ways to raise funds
for D. C. Virgo Middle School that only involve minimal time and effort!
1. Please send your used printer/toner cartridges and old
cell phones to Virgo! Encourage your neighbors, co-workers,
friends, and relatives to do the same! There are collection points
in each of the computer labs. We get paid to recycle those!!
2. If you shop at Harris Teeter and have a customer
card, you may ask to link your purchases to the school. Our school
number is 3438. You must re-link every school year.
Any friend, co-worker, neighbor, or relative who shops at any Harris
Teeter, nationwide, may give this number and have their purchases
linked!

the card that you may call to have your purchases linked. You do not
have to re-link each year and again, anyone, anywhere who shops at
