Free Back to School Supplies for Every Child in America

DENVER, July 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Ibotta, a leading rewards platform in the United States, today announced it will provide millions of children in America with free back to school supplies for the upcoming school year. In partnership with some of the most iconic brands for kids like Skippy, Kleenex and Nature's Own, Ibotta's "Back to School FREE for All" program will give students a free bundle of backpack and lunchbox staples to help ease the financial burden for families heading into the 2021-2022 school year.

Backpacks, clothes, pencils, notebooks and more add up to hundreds of dollars in back to school expenses for the average American household. And this year, with bulk quantities of masks and hand sanitizer on the lists, budgets will likely be even higher. So alongside its partners, Ibotta is enabling every parent in the U.S. the chance to receive 100% cash back on back to school staple items, while supplies last, including:

• 1 FIVE STAR 3-Subject Notebook
• 1 12-Pack Ticonderoga Pencils
• 1 110-Count Box Kleenex
• 1 Loaf of Nature's Own Bread
• 1 Jar Skippy Peanut Butter
• 1 Smucker's Fruit Spread Squeeze Bottle
• 3-Pack Paper Mate Erasers

"After what families and students went through last school year, the last thing they should be worrying about heading into this school year is how they're going to afford school supplies," said Richard Donahue, Chief Marketing Officer, Ibotta. "By coming together with so many household names to help ease the burden of back to school costs, we hope that every family - whether their children are going back into the classroom or continuing virtually - can take advantage of this free program."

To redeem the free back to school bundle during Ibotta's "Back to School FREE for All" program, shoppers simply download the free Ibotta app or Ibotta Browser Extension and follow the instructions to add the items to their shopping lists. From there, they can go to any participating in-store and online retailers to purchase their items and receive 100% cash back.

"Nature's Own breads are the perfect foundation for a better for you school lunch. And as families head into a new school year, we wanted to team up with Ibotta to help take another worry off parents' plates – getting their kids out the door with lunch, for less."  Jessica Wood, Nature's Own Senior Brand Manager.
