BP Promotions

We are fortunate to live in a community where local businesses support our schools by becoming Kiddo! Business Partners each year.  We encourage families to shop locally to support these businesses that support our schools. 

Several Kiddo! Business Partners have offered to raise additional funds for our children through special business promotions, which are listed below. 

If you would like more information about our business promotions please contact Patty Flax at (415) 389-7792 or pflax@kiddo.org.
