Allenton Community Service Project
From February 1 - April 26, Allenton Elementary is going to do a school wide competition to collect pop tops to support the Ronald McDonald House of Eastern Wisconsin.
Pop tabs are the aluminum tabs found on the top of cans. Aluminum is one of the most recyclable materials in the world and, although the whole can is valuable, the pop tab is smaller and cleaner, making it easier to collect in large quantities. The pop tabs collected are exchanged for funds to be donated to directly support the children and families staying at RMHC.
Please have your child bring pop tops in and put them in their bucket in the office for a fun grade level competition. The winning grade level will participate in a staff vs. grade level gym game along with a treat.
Please see the attached link for more information about the Ronald McDonald House and their mission with collecting pop tops. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Mrs. Olson.
