Points accumulate based on purchases, and when our school redeems them for different fundraisers (for example, hot lunch items), we receive $1 for every 91 points accumulated. (Our hot lunch program saved over $150 on points this year.) Feel free to share this info with your extended family and friends for all their event shopping.
