This TB wants to collect Tabs from aluminum beverage cans as it travels around. The tabs want to be removed an given to the Ronald McDonald House Charity as they will provide for those in need.
Pop Tab Collection Program
Many Ronald McDonald Houses work with local recycling centers to raise money by collecting tabs from aluminum cans.
Ronald McDonald Houses collect pop tabs instead of entire aluminum cans because the tabs are pure high-quality aluminum, unlike cans, which consist of aluminum and other alloys. Tabs are also easier to store than whole cans.
After the tabs are collected, the local RMHC Chapter brings the collection to local recycling centers, where they are weighed to determine their value. One pound of tabs is worth 57 cents, and one gallon of pop tabs (4,175 tabs) is worth $1.49.
The recycling center then sends the local RMHC Chapter or House a check for the total value. To date, more than 400 million pop tabs have been collected, generating more than $4 million.
