Do you drink pop or know someone who does? That little tab that helps opens the pop can could make a big difference in the life of another person. It might seem like something small, but it all adds up! Collect pop tabs (or pull tabs) from aluminum cans and bring them to the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 50 – 524 Belmont Avenue West, Kitchener. The Legion will turn all of that metal into cash to purchase mobility devices for people who need them.
Recently, KW Habilitation dropped off a bunch of pop tabs to the Legion to help out. KW Habilitation has a container inside Grant’s Cafe for those that want to add to the collection there. You can also bring your own collection of pop tabs to the Legion at anytime during their regular business hours and drop them off at the bar there. Small contributions when combined together can make a big impact!
