Earn Free $$ for Blythe Park School with Box Top$

Posted by admin on under 2010, 2010 August, Fundraising | Comments are off for this article

By clipping Box Top$ logos from some of your favorite products, you can help Blythe Park earn FREE money. We earn 10 cents for each logo we collect, which added up to $600 last year! Students can participate in the Box Top Baggie contest. Each time you collect 10 Box Top$ (a change this year), put them in a baggie with your child’s name and grade on it and drop it in the box outside the school office. For each baggie your child submits, he/she is entered in a monthly drawing for a fun prize. We also have a contest between all the classrooms and an individual prize, too. Please start clipping and spread the word to your friends and family. Below are links to a flier you can share with your family and a one-page sheet that lists all products that sport the Box Top$ logo. Please contact Carol Barlow with any questions…. carol377@comcast.net.
