Box Tops for Education - FREE MONEY!
It's easy to get free money for Burley. Just look for Box Top for Education
labels on General Mills products such as Cheerios,
Fiber One bars, Juicy Juice, and ZipLoc bags. Cut them out and put them in
the collection bin near the front office or ask your
children to turn them in at school. You can also go to
http://www.boxtops4education.com/ and enter JP Burley in one of the many
promotions that can earn thousand of dollars for our school. You can even
download some $1 off coupons at the website to use when you do your own
grocery shopping! Burley earned approximately $600 last year from the Top
Box for Education program, which is nearly a 100% increase over the previous
year. Although good, there were schools in our area that earned over $2,000.
We can do better. We also collect Campbell's Labels for Education, which
appear on products such as Campbell's soups, V-8 products, Swanson products
and more. A complete list of products is available here
http://www.labelsforeducation.com/
Thank you for doing your part to help Burley.
