File photo<\/p>\n<p>Fashion Fair Mall and its parent company, Macerich, are launching a new program designed to support local schools through community participation and everyday shopping.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The School Cents program launches in August for the 2026-27 school year and will allow participating schools to earn donations based on points generated through purchases at Fashion Fair Mall. Parents, teachers, family members and friends can support their chosen school by shopping, dining or using services at the mall.<\/p>\n<p>Ten schools will be selected to participate, with each school eligible to earn between $500 and $4,000 based on points accumulated through March 31, 2027.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It is available to all schools in the surrounding Fresno area.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLocal schools are such an important part of our community, and we\u2019re thrilled to launch a program that helps support them in a meaningful way,\u201d said Brian Malony, senior marketing manager at Fashion Fair. \u201cSchool Cents is an opportunity for families and friends to rally around their school just by doing the shopping and dining they already enjoy at Fashion Fair.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The program also includes a mobile app scheduled to launch this summer. Participants will submit their receipts through the app, which will allow points to be tracked automatically for each school. There will be opportunities for bonus points throughout the year.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Schools interested in participating must apply by June 5. The selected schools will be notified and must designate a School Cents coordinator to help promote participation among families, staff and supporters.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Fashion Fair Mall is launching its School Cents program in August 2026, allowing shoppers to earn donations for&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":346100,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[112,114,113],"class_list":["post-346099","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-fresno","tag-fresno","tag-fresno-headlines","tag-fresno-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346099","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=346099"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346099\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/346100"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=346099"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=346099"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=346099"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
