Parents Tour
Rev: 16Mar12
How it Works Schools and their affiliated
organizations list items under their school’s heading.
Parents relate their students to schools, and can pay for selected items offered under the school’s listing.
All transactions are tracked online, enabling immediate reporting for both administrators and parents.
Funds are collected by Pay4SchoolStuffOnline and distributed to the organization responsible for listing the item.
