  • Ongoing D. C. Virgo 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!
3. When shopping at Office Depot, link your purchases to Virgo with the number 70062729. A percentage will be donated in office supplies to the school. Anyone, anywhere may link to Virgo.
4. If you shop at Food Lion and have a customer card, you may call, toll-free, 1-800-210-9569 to have your purchases linked. You must do this each school year. Anyone, anywhere may link to Virgo.
5. If you shop at Target and plan to get or have a Target credit card, you may link your purchases to Virgo. If you sign up for a credit card, you may link on the credit card application. If you already have a credit card, there is a toll-free number on 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 Target may link to Virgo!
6. We also collect “Box Tops for Education” from products such as General Mills cereals, Kleenex, Ziploc bags, Hefty products, and many more. Simply clip the label and send it with your student! If you shop online you may go through the Boxtops for Education web site and a percentage of your purchases will be donated to the school! You may also visit the web site for a complete list of products.
7. We also collect “Labels for Education.” Clip the UPC’s and lids from Campbell’s soup, Pepperidge Farms, Prego, Franco-American, etc. and send those to school. For a complete list, go to the Labels for Education web site
