Help a Local School by Shopping…Yes, Shopping!

What mom doesn’t want to help her child’s school? Of course we are passionate about the schools our children attend and even those in our surrounding community. What better way to help them earn money than to shop for things you already buy? By simply redirecting your buying habits and shopping through the Box Top Marketplace, you can earn 3, 6, even 12 percent for your school on your purchases. Those earnings add up quickly!

I found one of my very favorite places ever, Barnes & Noble, on the Box Top Marketplace. I did a little shopping and found a fabulous beauty book (Jemma Kidd Make-up Masterclass: Beauty Bible of Professional Techniques and Wearable Looks) that I couldn’t live without (I find I can’t live without most of them!), made the purchase and voila- my kid’s school is now 6% of my purchase richer. Not bad for a few clicks of shopping!

I also found that Target is in the Marketplace! TARGET! Hello! I spend a ton of money at Target! While their donation percentage is significantly lower than Barnes & Nobel, at only 1.5%, every bit counts right? I have my eye on some furniture pieces that will make a nice dent in the school’s goal if I shop through the Marketplace.

It’s a simple process, really! No long drawn out forms to complete. Simply join BTFE.com (Box Tops 4 Education) and choose a school to support. When you start your shopping trips through the Marketplace, a percentage of your purchases automatically goes directly to your school! (If you access a participating merchant’s site in any manner other than by linking directly from the Box Tops for Education Marketplace, your purchase WILL NOT result in a donation to your school.)

Other beauty and fashion sites you can shop via the Marketplace: Gap, Banana Republic, Victoria’s Secret, Avon, HSN, Drugstore.com and a whole lot more! There is also a long list of sites to shop from for your kids! Start shopping and feel good about doing it because you are earning cash for your favorite school!
