FAQs

I am having trouble redeeming my School Dollars on the app and/or website. Whom can I contact to help me?

For assistance with redeeming School Dollars, you can contact Lizzy Russell, Program Manager for Hannaford Helps Schools, at (603) 380-9353 or info@hannafordhelpsschools.com.

Do I have to download the app to redeem School Dollars?

No, you can redeem School Dollars through the online Redemption Website. Downloading the Hannaford Helps Schools app makes future School Dollar redemption even easier because it saves your information and the school you want to support.

How can we redeem School Dollars collected at our school?

Schools can redeem all School Dollars collected via the Hannaford Helps School app or online Redemption Website. The white envelope included in your packet can be used to collect unredeemed School Dollars in the event they are brought to your school.

I received an envelope in the mail with my Hannaford Helps Schools supplies – what is this envelope for?

The envelope may serve as a place for schools to collect School Dollars from parents, friends and families. 

While school community members can process their School Dollars independently via the Redemption Website or the Hannaford Helps Schools app, some people may choose to bring them into their school for collection. Once the School Dollars are collected, there are two options:

  1. Appoint one person at the school to process the School Dollars via the Redemption Website or the Hannaford Helps Schools app. Please note, this is the only way to ensure that the School Dollars are directed to the school of your choice.
  2. Bring the envelope of School Dollars to a Hannaford store.
