Everyday Opportunities
In addition to the Annual RCS Banquet, which functions as our main fundraising effort, there are several passive fundraising activities you can participate in to help raise funds for our school.
Passive fundraising is a great way to get donations for our school without going outside of your daily activities or money expenditures. There is nothing to sell, it’s easy, and it works!
We do this by asking our school families to save items that they already have in their homes or use cards at stores where they already shop. By the end of the school year, each family will have contributed a few hundred dollars without giving up any extra time or money!
Support RCS just by shopping at Fred Meyer. All you have to do is link your Rewards Card and scan it every time you shop at Fred Meyer. Link your current Rewards Card here. If you do not have a Rewards Card, you can sign up for one at the Customer Service Desk of any Fred Meyer store.
Fill BottleDrop Blue Bags with empty containers and drop them off at any BottleDrop location or one of their partner retailers at your convenience. You drop ’em. They count ’em. RCS gets the refund.
Cash is awarded to the school for box tops from the packaging of hundreds of participating products with the “Box Tops for Education” logo. It’s as simple as…
- Buy Box Tops products
- Download the Box Tops app and scan your receipt
- Earn cash for RCS!
Encourage your friends, family, and church to support RCS in this very easy way.
Parent Teacher Club
The Riviera Christian School Parent Teacher Club exists to help support the school advance their students’ academic & spiritual growth by providing financial assistance to the school through its fundraising efforts. The PTC will support shortfalls in the budget by providing opportunities & supplies outside the basic curriculum.

Volunteer
Parent volunteers are essential to the successful operation of our school. A wide variety of volunteer opportunities are available both on campus and off campus. And volunteering is not limited to just parents! We love to have grandparents, aunts and uncles, and even family friends participate. Volunteering is required for families in our preschool recorded program and elementary school. It is encouraged, but not required for childcare families. We ask that every parent review our Specific Volunteer Requirements.
As part of the RCS Safety and Security Plan, RCS must complete background checks on all volunteers who will be directly involved with students in our classrooms, on field trips and other activities.
Elementary Volunteers
Please fill out the information on this submission form. Only volunteers who have completed this form will be allowed to participate in our activities, field trips or in our classrooms.
Daycare & Preschool Volunteers
Volunteers in our Preschool 3 and 4 classes are required by the State of Oregon to be enrolled in the Central Background Registry (CBR). This process involves filling out a form online and getting fingerprinted. Find more detailed instructions and essential information for your application here. There is no fee for the CBR process.
Thank you in advance for working with us to keep our students safe.
