If you shop at Ingles, you have an opportunity to support local schools who participate in the R2S Reading Tutoring Program.
Ingles has a charitable program called Tools for Schools where they donate money to designated schools based on how much you spend at Ingles. Over the past 18 years, Ingles has donated over $18 million in school supplies to schools using the Tools for School program! Many of the schools where R2S serves students are part of the program – Claxton, Johnston, Hall Fletcher, Ira B. Jones, and PEAK Academy. The current dollars accumulated by these schools are relatively small to date:
You can help make a difference! Here is how it works . . . You simply go online and link your Ingles Advantage Card to the school of your choice. You will need the code for your school which you will find listed online (or reference the codes above). Then, every time you shop at Ingles, they will include the amount you spent in their calculation for the allocation of funds to your school of choice. The final amount earned for the school will be posted after the end of the school year (usually the third week of June). The school can then access these funds for much-needed equipment. This program runs from August to June each year, and you must re-designate your school of choice each school year. It's an easy and impactful way to support students in our community!

I tried to link my Ingles card to PEAK Academy, but get an error message saying there's no school by that name.

Hey David! If you visit https://www.ingles-markets.com/tools-for-schools-link and search "Asheville", PEAK will come up as a school you can choose. Not sure why it doesn't come up under Peak!
