Fund-raising Initiatives at Lippman for 2006/2007
The Lippman fund-raising initiatives enable us to provide enriching supplies to all the classrooms
and sponsor numerous holiday and family events throughout the year. We've organized our
fund-raisers into two types:
Annual "Save While You Shop" Fund-raising
- General Mills Box Tops for Education: General
Mills/Betty Crocker products have a pink or red box top on them.
The Betty Crocker baked goods, such as bagged cookie or muffin mixes,
have the box top on the bottom.
These box tops are worth ten cents each. During the school year, watch for the weekly box top collection
that earns a treat each week and small prize to the monthly winner.
Also, shop online at the BoxTops4Education Marketplace
and earn money for our school. There is a list of 200 participating stores on this website,
including JCPenny, Scholastic, Target, Office Depot, Pottery Barn, Lands End and more.
To get started, simply click on the "Join the Booster Club" link and register on the
BoxTops site, selecting Lippman as your school when prompted.
We raised over $400 this year with this fund-raiser.
- Target, Take Charge of Education:
If you have a Target retail store charge card please put it to good use!
Designate Lippman Day School to receive a 1% donation from your purchases.

That is all you have to do! Also, use the Target Visa card at any gas
station and the school receives a portion of the purchase.
