Pop tabs for the Ronald McDonald House Orange County

Pop tabs are the small aluminum tabs from cans of soda, some pet food, canned fruits, vegetables, and more. They can be collected and recycled in exchange for money, which can then be donated to a good cause. One such cause is the Ronald McDonald House Charities, which has Houses located throughout Southern California. These Houses help families stay close to their child when the child needs treatment for a serious medical condition. The Houses provide a home-like setting, close to the region's top hospitals, where families can stay free of charge for as long as necessary.

The Orange County Ronald McDonald House has a Pop Tab Collection Program, which is one of the easiest ways to support the House. Since the collection drive started in 1998, they have raised over $77,000 from recycling pop tabs. The money earned (100 percent of it) goes to offset the running costs of the Orange County Ronald McDonald House.

There are four easy steps to collecting pop tabs for the Orange County Ronald McDonald House:

• Ask students/co-workers to save pop tabs from their aluminum beverage cans in a baggie or another small container. Please do not bring tabs from cans that are not aluminum. To test, place a magnet near the tab in question – if it's not magnetic, it's aluminum. Please do not collect your pop tabs in containers with small openings such as milk jugs and two-liter bottles; it will make taking them out difficult!
• Designate a large container in your school/office as the collection point.
• Display a poster in your school/business/organization to encourage people to collect pop tabs.
• Purchase small or large collection houses at the Orange County Ronald McDonald House. Up to 5 small collection houses are free; each additional small collection house costs 25 cents. These pint-sized containers hold about 850 pop tabs. Up to 2 large collection houses are free; each additional large collection house costs $1.50. These larger containers hold about 15-20 pounds of pop tabs.

Once you have collected your pop tabs, you can drop them off at the Orange County Ronald McDonald House. They have a collection container in the back of the house by the recycling bins, so you can drop them off 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If this isn't convenient, you can mail the tabs directly to them, or take your tabs to a recycling location and mail a check. Please include your name, school, or organization name, and contact information.
