Press Release

As we bid adieu to summer and usher in the back-to-school season, Tops Friendly Markets is proud to welcome back the Tops in Education Program (TIE). This easy to enroll and participate in program allows participants to earn up to 5% in rewards for your school(s) throughout the entire school year (Sept. 1, 2024-May 31, 2025).

Since the program’s inception in 2012, Tops has donated more than $1.9 million to over 1,000 participating schools.

Taking part in TIE is easy!

Simply logon to www.topsmarkets.com/education, where you can quickly and easily register your Tops BonusPlus card for the program.

Here, you may select up to three schools in grades K-12 of your choice from a list of schools that have registered to be the benefactor of your Tops shopping.

Shop and save for your school!

Every time you shop, your designated school(s) will earn rewards when you purchase participating products including TOPS BRAND, Full Circle, TopCare, Tippy Toes, Simply Done, Crav’n, Paws Happy Life, Pure Harmony, Wide Awake, That's Smart and Best Yet with your registered Tops BonusPlus card. It’s that easy to earn up to 5% back to your selected school(s)!

What’s more, these items are ideal for the busy, working family. Not only are they a great value, but also items that will help you pack your lunch totes with healthy and nutritious options as the kids head out the door. Be sure to look at your weekly Tops ad for great savings on these great brands.

"As the school year kicks off, Tops is committed to equipping our local schools with the resources they need to thrive," said Kathleen Allen, senior manager of community relations for Tops Markets. "From supporting school field trips and dances to providing extra classroom supplies and youth sports funding, we’ve seen firsthand how the TIE program has really benefited these schools.”
