Supporting all the ways kids play What is My Coke Rewards for Schools? For over 80 years, Coca-Cola has supported and contributed resources that help create opportunities for students. The My Coke rewards for Schools program refreshes this commitment by helping schools get the resources, supplies and equipment they need.

How does the program work? With My Coke Rewards for Schools, parents, friends and other members of the community can support local schools every time they enjoy participating Coca-Cola beverages. With My Coke Rewards, all you have to do to put your school in play is:  Spread the word: let your community know your school is participating and encourage donations.  Collect points: parents, friends and neighbors can

donate points directly to your school. As the school



coordinator, you can also enter codes directly into



the school account (up to 200 codes per day).

 Get rewards: track your progress, then redeem

points for rewards.

Remember... every point counts. Even small point contributions can lead to great things for your school.

Encourage community participation One way to keep supporters engaged and enthusiastic is to provide them with regular updates on your school’s progress. Here are some ideas for keeping members energized and donating points.

To reach parents: PTA/PTO meetings and other school functions • Distribute handouts at PTA/PTO meetings or school functions throughout the year – especially during back to school - to update parents about your school’s point total and rewards redeemed.

Parent newsletters • Share your school’s progress and success regularly in newsletters or other publications - include information on how to become a My Coke Rewards member, where to find codes, get points and any special promotions or incentives.

Online tools • •

Add a link to the My Coke Rewards for Schools website on your school website so parents and faculty can get to the site easily to donate points and get information. Post reminders and encouragements on your school’s Facebook page, and share pictures of rewards your school receives. Ask parents to post messages when they make a donation.

Engaging school staff

• Post flyers in the teachers’ lounge and front office to promote participation • Encourage administrators and teachers to help drive participation among parents

My Coke Rewards For Schools Loyalty Program TERMS AND CONDITIONS PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. By reviewing these Terms and Conditions, clicking “I Agree” on the registration page, and participating, you agree, on behalf of your school, to the following rules governing the My Coke Rewards For Schools Loyalty Program. By agreeing to these Terms and Conditions, you also agree that your school may be entered into a My Coke Rewards for Schools sweepstakes, if any, offered by Sponsor and that your school will be bound by the Official Rules of each such sweepstakes.

School Coordinators (defined below) may visit www.mycokerewards.com/schools to see the number of points donated to them by My Coke Rewards members, to enter codes, or to have their Schools’ accounts credited with the points they have collected. 2. T  he individual appointed by the School principal, administrator or other authorized representative to administer the School’s My Coke Rewards account (each a “School Coordinator”), may redeem the School’s points for merchandise or services available at www.mycokerewards.com/schools or take other actions on behalf of the School.

The number of points collected by each Enrolled School will be recorded and tracked in the Enrolled School’s Account. Schools must be enrolled in the Program during the Redemption Period in order to redeem points. If, at the end of the Redemption Period, a School has not enrolled in the Program, any donated points will be forfeited and will be donated to one or more of the participating non-profit organizations featured on www.mycokerewards.com.

Refunds, exchanges and other issues are governed by the vendor’s terms and conditions applicable to the purchase and are not the responsibility of Sponsor. 4. Sponsor reserves the right to modify the available items or services for redemption and the corresponding point requirements at any time during the Program. 5.

S points.
