All of our local schools participate in the Box Tops for Education program, as most around the country do. I always make sure to clip the box tops and place them in a container that I keep on my kitchen counter especially for them and then drop them off at the school on a regular basis. People would be amazed at the difference that the box tops can make in a school if we all worked together and turned in those box tops. With the start of school either already here or quickly approaching now is the perfect time to start saving those box tops.
