Redemption Guidelines

KEMPS Nickels For Schools Program Redemption Information

Thank you for taking advantage of Kemps Nickels For Schools school fund raising program! Our intent is to make this program valuable for your school and easy to participate in. Please adhere to the following guidelines for redeeming Kemps specially marked milk caps and proof of purchase symbols (POP) for cash for your school:

Qualifying Submissions

By submitting specially marked milk caps and POP symbols, your school agrees to these official program rules:

Only milk caps with the official Kemps Nickels For Schools sticker qualify for redemption. You may also redeem official Kemps Nickels For Schools proof-of-purchase symbols (POP) located on side panels of participating Kemps dairy products. All acceptable specially marked milk caps and Nickels For Schools POP symbols have a redemption value of 5¢, unless otherwise noted on the package or in promotional materials. Kemps LLC, the Kemps Nickels For Schools administrator, or its designee have sole discretion in determining whether submitted milk caps and POP symbols qualify for redemption.

We appreciate your school’s participation in the Nickels for Schools program. Specific guidelines were set to insure we can honor every consumer purchase of eligible Kemps products.  Specially marked Nickels for Schools caps or proof-of-purchase symbols can be found where Kemps dairy products are sold.  We look forward to your schools continued participation in this program.

Schools may submit multiple orders during the redemption period (through the second Friday in April, annually). Please redeem a minimum of 2,000 caps/POP symbols at one time — this will ensure that your school will receive a check for no less than $100 per submission. If possible, we ask that a school limit its submission of caps/POP symbols to 4 times per school year.

When shipping qualifying caps and POP symbols to the redemption center, please use a ground service, UPS or DHL.  Shipping costs are the responsibility of the redeemer. You'll find that redeeming as many caps as possible at one time will make the most efficient use of your non-reimbursable shipping charges.

Please allow 4 to 6 weeks after submission for the verification process.

Specially marked milk caps and POP symbols obtained illegitimately are void. Kemps LLC will make such determination at its sole discretion.

The Kemps Nickels For Schools offer is void where taxed, restricted, or prohibited by law.

Specially marked milk caps/POP symbols must be sent for redemption according to these official guidelines.  Submissions postmarked after the second Friday in April will not have a check issued until September of the new school year. All submissions are subject to verification. Please allow 4 to 6 weeks for the verification process. Cap/POP symbol redemptions are not valid until verified by Kemps LLC, whose decisions are final. Facsimiles, mechanically reproduced or seriously damaged, contaminated, or filthy submissions will not be accepted. Once submitted, all redemption materials, order forms, etc. become the property of Kemps LLC and will not be returned. Kemps LLC is not responsible for lost, late, stolen, seriously damaged, or misdirected mail, submissions, deliveries, or correspondence. Proof of mailing/shipping is not proof of receipt.

Kemps LLC, its officers, directors, subsidiaries, or affiliates and their agencies and employees shall not be liable for any claims, injuries, losses, or damages resulting from the Kemps Nickels For Schools program.
