Put Your Online Shopping Dollars to Work through Shopraise
With the closure of the AmazonSmile program, we have researched and settled upon a hopefully better alternative. ShopRaise allows online shoppers to support our nonprofit while buying from over 1,000 popular retailers. Whether it’s shopping for daily essentials like groceries, buying furniture for your home office, or even booking your next trip, the ShopRaise app lets you turn your everyday shopping into support for your California Poets in the Schools, all at no additional cost to you. Click here to get started.
We accept gifts of stock! All gifts of stock to California Poets in the Schools are currently processed by the Marin Community Foundation, where we have a managed fund established. We will work with you to set up a gift to our CALIFORNIA POETS IN THE SCHOOLS - UNRESTRICTED FUND of the Marin Community Foundation. Please contact Meg Hamill for more information: meg@cpits.org
