Did you know that for years, the Reston Lions Club has informally collected Pop Can Tabs to support the
work that is done every day by organizations like Shriner's International and the Ronald McDonald House? If you are unconvinced of the benefits of this small service, maybe you are unfamiliar with what these small tabs can do. Read more below to find out or you can just start to participate today. You can collect tabs on your own in a jar or sandwich bag. Bring these tabs to the Lake Anne Farmers Market and drop them at the Lions Club Booth all summer long. We'll collect them and make sure they get to a good charity.
First off, lets' dispell the myth that the Pop-can tab somehow has higher grade aluminum than the rest of the can. It's just smaller, easy to collect, and even easier to store; All big advantages. Other blogs will go into full detail on the Pull-tab myths but the point is, even a little bit can go a long way if everyone teams together.
Aluminum Recyclers will pay by the pound for Aluminum. This means that for every pound of tabs we collect means "free money" that we can give to these other organizations. If we can collect enough tabs, we can make a big difference.
If the Pop Can Tab collection program for the Reston Lions Club is successful this summer, we may consider a larger Aluminum Can Drive this year to raise money for our own charity, Reston Lions Charties, LLC.
Draft Proposal for Can Drive available upon request.
