Target Red Card

Target's® "Take Charge of Education" program offers one of the easiest ways to raise money for Emerson. If you have a Target Visa or Target Guest Card, you can designate Emerson Elementary School to receive a cash donation equal to 1% of purchases made at Target and 1/2% of purchases made everywhere else. Once you sign up, Target tracks your purchases and distributes donations once a year in September. You do nothing except use your Target Visa or Guest Card as you normally would. The more you use your card, the more the school receives! Anyone can participate: parents, grandparents, interested community members. You don't need to live in the district; you just need to designate Emerson for your account.

Here's how to participate:
•Apply for a Target Visa or Target Guest Card
•Shop with your Target card
•Designate the school of your choice by going to https://sites.target.com/site/en/corporate/page.jsp?contentId=PRD03-001693 or call 1-800-316-6142

• or pick up a brochure at your local Target store.
