How to Get Extra Box Tops

Box Tops for Education is a program available to schools that serve students in Kindergarten through 8th grade in the United States. The program allows schools to earn money they can use for materials or programs by collecting box tops on specially marked products. General Mills launched the Box Tops for Education program in 1996. Since then, several other companies have joined. Now schools can collect not only box tops, but also earn online points from a variety of products and services.
