Lions to Start Collecting Box Tops and Labels for Dogwood Elementary

After the meeting on Wednesday, 3/13, we compiled a short list of simple things we can do to support Dogwood Elementary and their efforts to provide the best education possible to some of our highest-need community children.  We are going to organize the collection of Box Tops and Soup Labels as described below.  Also, below is a list of links to local grocery retailers that you should register your discount/club card to for earning points and money to support the school just by shopping where you already shop.  This should be relatively painless.  Questions, contact RestonLionsClub@gmail.com .
In addition, we are encouraging friends and family to collect Box Tops for Education (a Program run by General Mills).  Attached is a list of common products that contain Box tops, along with a link to the list of products that contain Labels for Education.  Essentially, you save the Box Top part of the packaging of an item (Cheerios Breakfast Cereal, for example).  Each Box Top is worth 10 cents when returned by the school.  Idea:  We collect the Box Tops for the school and they get money towards classroom materials etc.  It's a great program.  This won't cost anything but a few seconds before you recycle the box/Can etc.  Full Participating Product List

Labels for Education is a program run by Campbell's Soup although many other products have been added that are not just Soup.  Same premise for collecting them, just a different program and products.
