Woolworths has a Earn and Learn program, where during a two month
period you get one sticker for every ten dollars spend at them. I
have always been interested in knowing how much of the ten dollars
goes back to the schools.
According to this
article on the ABC website, the Oaks Public School spend almost
half a million dollars in Woolworths' stores to be returned school
supplies with a value of about 2,700 dollars.
That is about 0.5%, or 5 cents per 10 dollars.
If I spend 100 dollars per week at Woolworths (which I don't because
most of the money is spend at the bakierie, chicken shop, butcher
and vegetable shop), I will make 50 cents for the school.
If I would give the school 10 dollars, that is the equivalent of
20 weeks of Earn and Learn. And the amount of profit equivalent of
2000 dollars worth of purchased items less for Woolworths.
