I am looking for anyone that has collected Box Tops for Education and doesn't know what to do with them. Our school is trying to raise money for a new computer lab, which the kids desperatly deserve.
If you have or know someone that has BoxTops and would like to donate them to the elementary school in Lowell, Indiana please let me know. I will kindly send you a SASE if you would be so kind and generous to send them to me.
Thanks for your help. Please & Thanks!

Awesome question! Do you know that they actually SELL them on ebay?!?! Horrible! Those people should be donating these to their schools! And the amount that they are asking is the face value; the people could just donate the cash to their school rather than allowing individuals to profit.
Here are some tips to get more; post a note in your church bulletin. Put a bin in the foyer to collect them from parishioners. If there are a couple of schools districts that make up your church population then you could always offer to split them; you would still end up with more than you would have had.
Ask your neighbors. If there are any community centers (especially for senior citizens) then place a box with a sign there. I am sure they will let you and seniors often like to feel like they are making a difference so they would probably donate a large amount.
Hang some signs in your grocery stores asking people to save them and take them to the school. Most stores have bulletin boards where you can post things and a lot of people save these and then have nothing to do with them.
Have a contest in the school. The classroom that brings in the most wins a pizza party. You could possibly even get someone to donate the pizzas, or at the very least give you a discount. The kids really take these things seriously and will be asking all of their neighbors to save them and everyone they know!
Good luck!

Hey, my mom started saving them when we were in elementary school. I'm now in highschool and I am the youngest, so she just collects them, but doesn't really have anywhere to turn them in. If you want you can send me and email with your address or school address, and I will send them to you. My email is in my profile. Good luck!
Oh, and I am from Crown Point. What a small world! haha Go Bulldogs.
