“Since 1996, schools have earned nearly $1 billion through Box Tops for Education, and data shows a large amount of our program supporters are Walmart shoppers. Box Tops has always been one of the easiest ways to support schools and teachers, and we’re excited to make it even easier by partnering with Walmart on our new Connected Accounts app feature,” said Lilly Moeding, Box Tops for Education brand experience manager. “Now you can earn cash for your school every time you buy Box Tops products at Walmart — with no scanning required!”

Box Tops for Education has always believed that a child’s education is the foundation to achieving their fullest potential and teachers are a huge part of that. To further explore the influence educators have on students, YouGov recently conducted a survey* on behalf of Box Tops and discovered 86% of respondents agree that teachers are integral to our society, while almost half (49%) strongly agree that teachers are not celebrated enough in the U.S. With this in mind, Box Tops created the new Connected Accounts feature as the next initiative to help participants automate the process of earning Box Tops, making it easier to support the schools that need it most.

Connected Accounts is now available via the Box Tops app. For instructions on how to activate and use Connected Accounts, visit BoxTops4Education.com.
