Glenwood Middle School needs your box tops


At least $500 is the goal of Glenwood Middle School’s third annual Box Tops for Education fundraising campaign.

Box Tops for Education is a school fundraising program started by General Mills in 1996. To date, Box Tops has helped America’s schools raise over $250 million to buy the things they need but can’t always afford, such as library books, school supplies and playground equipment.

The Box Tops for Education program offers school supporters three easy ways to earn cash for schools through everyday activities such as buying groceries, shopping online and purchasing books.

Schools can earn a total of up to $60,000 each year. There are several easy ways to get involved and help students reach their goal:

• Clip Box Tops from hundreds of favorite products and send them to Glenwood

• Sign up to support BGMS on the Box Tops Web site (btfe.com)

• Shop online: The school will earn a percentage of purchases made through the Box Tops Marketplace.
