Request for Pop Tabs
Lincoln students, families, and staff have been collecting pop tabs for the past six years to donate to the Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) in Milwaukee. This wonderful organization provides a home away from home for families with a child who is staying at Children’s Hospital.
The RMHC offers many wonderful amenities for families, to help them maintain as much normalcy and solace as possible. These include a game room, computer room, study room, Secret Garden, laundry room, fitness center, playground, art and music therapy, church, and free meals.
Pop tab donations are one of RMHC’s funding sources and in May of every year, they hold a special “Pop Tab Day,” when the value of pop tabs is generally tripled! That’s right, rather than earning 33¢ per pound, each pound of pop tabs collected on this day is worth around $1.00!
Historically, we've been able to donate an incredible amount of tabs during this time, but we need everyone's help to do it again this year.
So what can you do?!?!? Simply pop off the tabs from aluminum or tin cans and send them in with your Lincoln Lion at any time. Students can give them to their classroom teacher or drop them off in Mrs. Granrath's office, Room 138.
