Labels For Education

Waterbury also collects Campbells labels. Please remember that we are required to submit an intact UPC code, so you may send in the entire label or just the UPC code. A list of participating products is available at the Labels for Education website.

(See the PTO Website for more fundraising information.)

POP TABS

Please save and send pop can tabs to school. The PTO collects them and they are given to Ronald Mc Donald House Charities. "After the tabs are collected, the local RMHC Chapter brings the collection to local recycling centers, where they are weighted to determine their value (values can vary significantly). The recycling center then sends the local RMHC Chapter a check for the total value." (Taken from the RMHC Pop Tab Collections website.) This popular fundraiser benefits seriously ill children by helping provide a place for them and their families to stay while they are out of town for medical treatment. These houses are conveniently located close to hospitals.
