Recycle for a Cause
What if you could help a child in need by doing something as simple as taking the metal tab of your soda can before recycling it?
21 Century Community Service
Program is starting a new project! We are collecting tabs from aluminum cans to
fund free transportation to the nearest Shriners Hospital
for children in need. Instead of just recycling old cans along with their tabs,
please donate them so we help these children! Drop off your collected tabs to
your homeroom teacher or at your floor office. There are also jars in all the
pods. Thank you for all you help! Your donations are greatly appreciated! JJJ
21st Century
Community Service: Ms. Simmons & Ms. Barry
