Box Tops for Education
Box Tops for Education
Box Tops for Education has contributed over $340 million to participating schools since the launch of the program in 1996. The Box Tops for Education Program earns cash for our school. Each Box Top for Education that you clip is worth 10 cents. Occasionally there are bonus promotions where we can earn more. The money earned can be used to purchase anything. Computers, books, or playground equipment are just some of the ways schools have chosen to use the funds raised through Box Tops for Education.
