BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION
Thank you everyone who has been using the Box Tops for Education app and sending in traditional box tops. We have already earned $682.40 this year from box top submissions!
The Box Tops for Education program has changed the way we can earn cash for our school. Going forward, instead of clipping from packages, all Box Tops will be earned digitally by scanning your receipt. If you still have traditional Box Tops clips at home, make sure to send them to school.
The app works on ios and Android devices and is really easy to use. You just use it to take a photograph of your receipt from any store that sells products with box tops and OAS will automatically earn money. It's so much easier than clipping and remembering to send them to school. Friends and family members anywhere in the country who support children at our school can download the app and earn box tops for OAS too.
For more information on how to download and use the App click on the below button or ask me and I can help you set it up.
Please contact Amanda Cowell (amanda.cowell@gmail.com) with any questions.
