In the 1990’s Target Corporation started the
Take Charge of Education
program in support of private and public schools. Kradwell
joined the program in 1999 and as if 10/08 received nearly $400 for
our Scholarship Fund.
Here’s how the program works: When school supporters
enroll and use their REDcard, Target donates 1% of every purchase
made with their REDcard to our school. As more people join
the program, the funds really add up – there is no limit to the
amount we can receive.
For community members to participate in Take Charge of
Education, all they need is a REDcard and to designate Kradwell
School online at Target.com/tcoe, or by calling 1-800-316-6142.
- To get the REDcard credit account (Target Visa Credit card
or Target Credit Card), Kradwell supporters can apply in
stores or online at Target.com/apply.
- Target also offers the Target Check Card, which is their
newest product, and acts like a debit card by connecting to an
existing checking account. Supporters can apply for the
Target Check Card in stores.
