Remember those old-timey days when you could cut out box tops and bring them to school? Well, as with many things, Box Tops have gone digital!
Please consider downloading the Box Top app and signing up to donate to Woodridge. If you use the referral code NBOX9EXQ, WMS will get 100 box tops! That is $10 for Woodridge just for signing up!
After that, you can link your Walmart account and it will automatically scan for products that have Box Tops. You can also choose to scan receipts.
Please consider signing up and spreading the word for this really simple way to earn money for Woodridge. Thank you!
