10/04/10 - Help the Institute by clipping Box Tops for Education

Make a difference by participating in Box Tops for Education!

Last year, the Institute earned more than $600 just by turning in Box Tops from grocery items purchased every day. This year, each Early Learning Center classroom will receive the exact dollar amount earned from Box Tops that staff, families and others associated with that room donate. The funds will be applied directly to instructional material for that classroom. At the end of the school year, in June 2011, the classroom with the highest number of Box Tops collected will be awarded the money earned over summer 2010–an additional $120! Any Box Tops turned in without a classroom number will also go toward the winner’s bonus cash!

How can you help? Here are five easy ways:

1)     Clip — Clip the Box Top from hundreds of participating products and send them to the learning center. Each one is worth 10¢ when we redeem them from Box Tops for Education.
2)     Shop online — Shop at your favorite online stores through the Box Tops Marketplace® (boxtops4education.com/marketplace). Up to 15 percent of your purchase total is automatically donated to us at no additional cost to you. Plus, you’ll get exclusive Box Tops deals and discounts!
3)     Read — Buy books online through the Reading Room^SM, a partnership between Box Tops and Barnes and Noble. Our school receives up to 6 percent of qualifying purchases.
4)     My Class Essentials™ –– This is a free online registry to help classrooms get the learning tools they need. Our school earns a 2 percent cash donation with every purchase.
