Davis8,

That's phenomenal! I really wish I used enough of the products to do it. But I know families who involve the grandparents and neighbors (without kids), so it's definitely possible.

Welcome to GreatSchools.

We are a consolidated school between three towns. We have 3 schools total. Primary, intermediate, and middle. We hold 3 contests a year. The top 3 classes in each building will win a treat from the PTO, this could be as simple as an ice cream treat. The teacher's of the winning classes will recieve checks, in the amounts of 35.00. 25.00 and 15.00 for each place. The teacher can use this to purchase class room books or supplies.
These contests has really increased out collection of box tops. Last year we collected a little over 10,000 box tops!

I buy a lot of items that have the BoxTops coupon, and I usually send them in a few times a year. I figure, any money the school can receive, the better. Good luck with your fundraising.

Boxtops is a really great passive fundraiser. No one has to buy anything out of the ordinary. However, I'm not a real fan of most of the products that have the boxtops, and I can usually purchase another brand for much cheaper.

Our school raised $1186 with 440 kids, and another elementary school raises literally thousands with it.

While it's not our biggest fundraiser, it's another case of giving people a LOT of opportunities to help the school in many different ways. Glad they're doing so well at your school!
