fiddlesticks

We are excited to introduce a give-back program designed to support both elementary and preschools in the San Francisco area. As a San Francisco-based retailer, we know how much you value your kids' schools and how involved so many of you are in raising money for these fantastic institutions!

Every time you shop with us, Fiddlesticks will donate a portion of your purchases back to your child's school! Once your school is signed up, all you have to do is mention the school's name each time you shop at our store, over the phone, or online, and 3% of your yearly combined purchases will go back to your school in the form of a cash donation. Get your whole class involved: the more everyone shops with us, the more your school benefits!

How do I sign up my school?

Simply email giveback@shopfiddlesticks.com and include the following:

Your school’s name, Your school’s website, Name of the person in charge of Fundraising at the school (ideally their email too). We’ll take care of contacting your school & signing them up!

How do I know if my school is already signed up?

Visit Give-Back to Schools for an up-to-date list of San Francisco-based schools that have already signed up.

My school is signed up. How can I spread the word?

We’ve got lots of ways to help your school spread the word among families:

- Post our logo on your school’s website

- Receive complimentary postcards to mail or handout to parents with information about the program.

- Host an after-hours shopping event at our store! We’ll provide wine and take care of the Evite. All you have to do is encourage families to show up!

Does the program apply only to schools in San Francisco? What about the entire Bay Area?

The program includes any preschool or elementary school in the entire Bay Area. So whether you are in the East Bay, Peninsula, or Marin we welcome you to join!

Can grandparents or relatives get involved?

Absolutely! Encourage your relatives to mention your child's school at checkout (in person or over the phone or web), and we will record the sale just as we would yours. At the end of each year, we will total all sales associated with a particular school. As long as the combined yearly sales for that school meet or exceed $500, we will mail your school a check for 3% of the total. And the best news: you don't have to do a thing! We'll take care of everything.
