YP
A reminder we are participating in YP℠ for Schools program again this year!
Last year we raised $7,000 and we can still earn $3,000 more this year.
How It Works:

By reviewing local businesses on yp.com and through the YP℠ app, we collect points that translate into donations for Stoneridge. The more you write and the more photos you share, the more points you collect and the more funds we raise.

You can get started today:

It’s as easy as 1-2-3…
1 - Sign up at http://ow.ly/WLQMz
2 – Share your opinions about local businesses on yp.com or using the YP app.
3 – Each review translates into points that count towards funds that
will benefit Stoneridge.

You can also text Stoneridge to 99000 and download the app on your phone.
