TLC COLLECTING POP TABS

The Ronald McDonald House recycles the tabs, and with the money they receive from this recycling, they are able to provide meals and housing accommodations for their guests at no charge. Last year, the Ronald McDonald House helped over 500 families while their children received medical care in Toledo.
