Ongoing Events

Save your plastic bottle caps! Drop them off in the Honors House.

A woman named Cynthia was diagnosed with cancer.  After successfully battling cancer years ago, her insurance company has decided that her insurance benefits have "capped."  Just recently, Cynthia was re-diagnosed with cancer and now, her insurance company will not cover her much needed chemotherapy treatments.

A company has just recently pledged a promise that for every 1,000 bottle caps, they will pay for 1 session of chemotherapy and have even now extended it for Dialysis treatments for other patients as well.

Now if you think about it, all of us know at least one person that has been diagnosed, battled, beat, or succumbed to cancer. Every time you open a bottle of soda, or any other product that uses plastic bottle caps, you could be aiding in saving someone's life with much needed chemotherapy treatments or dialysis treatments.

So instead of throwing those bottle caps out, help in saving someone's life.

Caps you can donate:

  • Soda/Water/Gatorade etc.
  • Shampoo
  • Hairspray Caps
  • Anything that is plastic and is a cap!!!
