How many times have you opened a package and noticed this logo?
Never? All the time? Once in a while?
If you do remember seeing it, do you know what it's for?
Do you keep it or just discard the packaging when empty?
Did you know that these "box tops" are worth 10 cents each?
Now, that may not be a lot, but they all add up!
Box Tops for Education is a fantastic program. This program, though simple, has helped over 90,000 schools nation wide, earn millions of dollars to help support various educational programs. To date this total has reached beyond :
In the school which my own children attend, we have done yearly Box Tops drives! We actually just ended our drive for this year. We brought in over 10,000 box tops!! That's over $1,000 that our school will be using to go towards our schools resource center! We had a goal of $750. We met and exceeded that!
Our top box top collecting class was a Kindergarten class that brought in 587 box tops! The next largest total, was a 3rd grade class that brought in 438 box tops. Last year, our school's box tops drive went towards the PE department with a total of $618.
