An ongoing project Mason Early Childhood Center (Ben's school) supports is the aluminum can pull tab collection for Ronald McDonald House. Ronald McDonald House is a nonprofit facility where families with critically ill children find housing and support while seeking medical treatment at Cincinnati Children's Hospital.
We were fortunate enough to live so close to Children's Hospital that we didn't need to stay at Ronald McDonald while Ben was in the NICU for four months. But their facility is truly a blessing for so many families like us, but don't live close to the hospital. I can't imagine the additional stress emotionally and financially it is to find a hotel to stay in for months on end while your child is in the hospital.
The pull tabs are recycled by Ronald McDonald and the proceeds go towards providing services for these families. Last year, Mason Early Childhood Center contributed over 100 gallon bags of pull tabs!
Our family is participating in this project and are asking for your help. Please send us the pull tabs from your aluminum cans and we will give them to Ben's school. We will be collecting tabs all year! Thanks for your help. My goal is to collect the same amount of tabs of adult beverages Mike had consumed during his fraternity years... so start saving! That's a lot of tabs!
Our address is:

That is awsome we drink so much soda from cans here!! I will see what I can do to collect them for you.

MECC also collects Box Tops--the little squares on some products that are worth 10 cents. The Box Tops are on several things like Kleenex boxes, granola bar boxes, etc. They add up quickly and make a nice bit of money for the school each year!
