Our mission is to raise funds for school enrichment programs such as literature, theater, art, music, and field trips.  If you're interested in helping with any of these please contact us at:

Just fill out the form and go shopping at the same places you shop at already, and Franklin gets a percentage. How much easier can it get? Please, take the time to do the initial sign up, it just takes a second, and you'll never have to think about it again.  Can you imagine how much money we can make if all the families at Franklin sign up for this?
