Eat & Earn for St. Eugene! You’ve seen it on the school calendar, but maybe you don’t know what an Eat & Earn is? PTO works with local restaurants to organize fundraiser nights for our school. Partners include Johnnie’s Charcoal Broiler, Ted’s Cafe Escondido, and more! When you see the Eat & Earn signs out at carpool or notice it’s an Eat & Earn night on the calendar, that’s your chance to help raise money for our school simply by eating or ordering out from the Eat & Earn location, and mentioning our school. Last year Eat & Earns raised more than $700 for our school! Always feel free to share our Eat & Earn nights with friends and family!
