Q: What is the WaMoola for Schools® program? A: The WaMoola
for Schools program is a program in which enrolled customers can support their local
schools every time they make a purchase with their Chase debit card. Each purchase earns
one point on behalf of the selected school. Effective April 30, 2010, the program will
end. Therefore, points earned from January 1, 2009, through April 30, 2010, will be
converted to cash and donated by Chase. Schools must earn a donation of $50 or more to
receive an individual donation. Schools that earn less than $50 will have their donations
allocated to organizations supporting education. Chase reserves the right to add to,
delete or change any rule, term, practice, benefit and/or condition of the WaMoola for
Schools program. Any such change may reduce, modify or eliminate accrued or earned
benefits under the WaMoola for Schools program at any time.

Q: How much money will my school receive when I make purchases with my enrolled Chase
debit card?
A: You'll accumulate a point for your school every time you make a purchase
with your Chase debit card. The overall donation your school receives depends on
how many customers chose your school and how many times they made purchases with
their enrolled debit cards. Each purchase generates one point. Please note that
ATM transactions do not earn points. Schools must earn a donation of $50 or more
to receive an individual donation. Schools that earn less than $50 will have their
donations allocated to organizations supporting education.
Q: How much is a point worth?
A: The value of a point is as determined at Chase’s sole discretion. Any
change made to the value of a point may be made retroactively and that the determination
may be retroactive to the beginning of the year in which tHe change is made.
Q: When will schools receive the donation?
A: All points earned during the period of January 1, 2009 through April 30, 2010
will be converted to cash and donated by check directly to designated schools during the
second quarter of 2010. Note: Schools must earn a donation of $50 or more to receive an
individual donation. Schools that earn less than $50 will have their donations allocated
to organizations supporting education.
Q: What if my school does not cash their check?
A: Schools must cash their checks within six months of their original issuance or
the funds will be reallocated to organizations supporting education. For example, if a
school receives a donation with an issue date of June 9, 2010 (for points accrued during
calendar year 2009 through April 30, 2010) and does not cash it by November 30, 2010,
