Ongoing fundraisers at Kohler Schools! It isn’t often that someone gives you money for something you’re going to throw away, but that’s exactly what these programs do. Each label or cap may seem small, but together they add up to hundreds of dollars each year, which helps KSF PTO fund many great activities for the children of Kohler Schools. Elementary students can turn in these items at any time to their classroom collection box. We’re having a collection contest again this year – the top 2 classes with the most points at the end of the year will receive an ice cream party (each box top/label/cap = 1 point). If you don’t have an elementary student but would like to support our school, please give your items to an elementary student or teacher (they’ll be happy to take them off your hands!) VERY IMPORTANT! Please cut along the dashed line and save the coupon only as shown below. The companies do not accept the entire label or package.

Box Tops for Education coupons can be found on General Mills cereals, Pillsbury Refrigerated and Frozen/Dairy, Hamburger Helper, Betty Crocker Snacks and Baking, Ziplock Bags/Containers, Kleenex and many more products. Each coupon is worth 10 cents! Labels for Education coupons can be found on Campbell’s soup, Swanson Soup, Franco American products, Prego Sauce, Pepperidge Farms products, and V8 drink lids. Each label earns points for free merchandise. Tyson Project A+ coupons can be found on Tyson Chicken products. Each label is worth 24 cents! Kemp’s Nickels for Schools caps on gallon and half gallon milk containers. Each cap is worth 5 cents. Kwik Trip Milk Moola caps on Kwik Trip or Kwik Star's Nature’s Touch, and Kwik Quencher products (worth 5¢ each) or Glazers Dozen or Half-Dozen donuts packages (worth 10¢ each). Questions?
