2017 Major Savers Discount Cards
The Olathe Public Schools Foundation's discount card sales program benefits schools and patrons alike. The Foundation, in conjunction with Major Saver Holdings, Inc., works with businesses throughout the district to offer a buy-one-get-one-free discount card to the community for only $15.
The sale of Major Saver cards, which offer 17 buy-one-get-one-free offers at Olathe area restaurants such as Pizza Street, Chick-Fil-A, and Texas Roadhouse benefit YOU in many ways. For even more savings Major Saver has added three additional key fobs that are attached to the card.
Half of the card proceeds stay in the student’s school to provide great educational opportunities. The remaining 50% of the cards’ proceeds support the Olathe Public Schools Foundation’s classroom grant program and summer school scholarships. Last year’s campaign raised over $188,000.
This year's discount card sales campaign runs thru January 17 through February 2. There are two ways to order a card:
1) Order an Olathe Major Saver card from an Olathe elementary student.
2) Go online at www.majorsaver.com/card and order an Olathe card, receive free shipping, and credit your purchase back to a student in an Olathe District School.
