Did you know you can help the McKinley PTO raise money through the purchases you're already making? The PTO participates in both the Box Top and Community Coffee Cash for Schools Programs. Keep reading to see how to join in! It’s an easy way to raise funds for activities and enrichment for McKinley’s students and teachers.
Each program requires different items/actions to participate, so please review the following information to familiarize yourself with what to send in.
Here are some tips on how to raise more cash!
- Ask friends and neighbors to add McKinley Classical Junior Academy to their Box Top app.
- Ask organizations that serve coffee if they use Community Coffee at gatherings and if you may collect the proof of purchase labels.

Box Tops Information
No more clipping. No more sending Box Tops to school. All you need is your phone. Download the Box Tops app (IOS or Android), choose McKinley Classical Junior Academy as your school, shop as you normally would, then simply scan your store receipts to find participating products. The app will automatically credit the school’s Box Tops earnings online. For a list of the participating brands, visit www.boxtops4education.com/s/box-tops-products.
If you see a No More Clipping Box Tops label on an item you purchased, use the Box Tops app (IOS or Android) to scan your receipt within 14 days of purchase. Each Box Tops item is worth 10 cents for our school, but the app also includes several bonus opportunities. The app finds the purchased participating products and instantly adds cash to our school’s earnings online. See how easy it is here!
An account is required, but if privacy is a concern, you can cross through your name and credit card information or fold your receipt to hide it. Only the store name, date/time, Box Tops items, and the total spent is required for credit.
If you bought Box Tops items and only received a digital receipt (for example, receipts from Instacart, Target.com, Walmart.com, and Shipt), click here to see how to get credit. For detailed program information, visit the Box Tops website.
Community Coffee Cash for Schools Information
This program is as easy as drinking coffee! Just look for the proof of purchase (POP) label on any Community Coffee product, clip it out, and send it to school in a bag or an envelope marked for the PTO. Students can drop them in the main office (the PTO's box is on the wall with the teachers' mailboxes, or they can hand it to the front desk -- just be sure it's labeled!). The POPs can be found on coffee bags, K-cup boxes, creamer, tea, filters, and bulk items sent to restaurants, hotels, and offices.
