Did you know that in the 15 years since the Ronald McDonald House Pop Tab Recycling program started, over $500,000 has been raised for the House! Funds received from the recycling of the tabs generates between $50,000-70,000 annually in revenue for the House! For those of you who may not know, the Ronald McDonald House provides a home-away-from-home for families with sick children who are being treated primarily at Riley Children's Hospital. This year the House's 5th Annual Pop Tab Drop is on August 7, 2009 on Monument Circle, Downtown Indy. Their goal this year is to collect over 15 million tabs in a three hour period (drop off time is 11 a.m. - 2 p.m.) If you drink anything at home with a tab top, would you join me in collecting them for the Ronald McDonald House? If you collect them, we can work out a way for me to get them from you and I'll drop them off! Hope to see you soon...with a bag of tabs! :-)
