Pull-Tabs for Kids
_
_
The Shriner’s collect the pull-tabs for four reasons, first, it allows others to help without additional cost to them. Second, because it allows people to help while keeping the can which they can still turn back in to recover the full redemption fee. Third, by recycling the aluminum, the Shriner’s are being environmentally friendly (It requires approximately 15% of the energy to recycle the already refined aluminum rather than mine new aluminum). Most importantly, it also is another way to help kids receive world class-care at the Shriner’s Hospitals for Children. The Aleppo Shriner’s (our parent organization) have collected over 15 tons of pull tabs and have raised over $310,000 in a single year to provide transportation to the Shriner’s Hospitals. The Shrine Club of Southeastern Mass recently submitted over 2 1/2 tons (about 5.8 million pull-tabs) to be recycled. Because our goal is continuing we need your help by dropping off pull-tabs
