Box Tops for Education


Hi all! This month, my PTA is trying to raise money for our school to meet their annual budget. I guess things are pretty tight this year. So, we are having a Box Tops for Education drive! The PTA is having each class K-6 bring in as many box tops as they can each week in the month of March and the class that brings in the most box tops wins a pizza party! We just barely found out about this so we are spreading the word to all our family, friends and cyber friends! If you don't already give your Box Tops for Education coupons to your own school, my little class of firsties would L-O-V-E your support! If you are interested in donating your Box Tops for Education or if you'd like more information, please email me at rebasutton@gmail.com.

There are so many ways to raise money for your school. If you'd like to learn more about the Box Tops for Education program, click here for more information. We are also doing an aluminum can drive one week, and a penny collection drive this month. We sold chocolate in the Fall, but I guess that didn't do so well. What are some other ways your school raises money for your PTA? I'd love to hear your comments!


Ok, on a lighter note, I am such a dork! For several years I've been too cheap to by an airport for my laptop, so to work, I had my internet connection up in my "office/guest bedroom". But, I only have one t.v in my house and that is downstairs in the living room. FINALLY, I bought myself a cable splitter and moved my internet connection downstairs where I can now curl up in my favorite easy chair and work AND watch tv!! Welcome to the 21st century!! (Almost...I still need wireless....or a second tv!... And no, I don't have a flat screen tv, yet!) So, I guess I have a ways to go....;)

I hope you'll come back tomorrow for my latest FRIDAY FREEBIE!!

There is only Love,
Rebecca

  3. Box Tops are the best. They are a big part of our PTA income. I have kids bringing them in everyday!

    You really need wireless! However do you do it?!

  4. Our school has a monthly contest of who brings in the most box tops for each class. Each month is is a different party for the winning class. Doughnuts, pizza, etc. We have collected a ton!! Good luck! We also do a Winterfest where families/teachers donate baskets and raffle them off. Families love it!

  5. We do box tops too. One teacher organizes everything and the money goes into a fundraising account for the teacher that turned in those box tops.
    Also, Rebecca,I've given you the One Lovely Blog Award. Please stop by and check it out!

  6. I don't think you want to know how many TVs I have in my house. And my WiFi.
    In other news, we have a Silent Auction to raise money. Also, a Fall Carvinal. A Fall Fundraiser. A Spring Fundraiser. And a whole slew of other things. It's always a big shake down. We also collect Box Tops.A Teeny Tiny Teacher
