Help The Sweethearts Foundation with 150 volunteers for Recycling Soda Tabs
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
🦽 The next wheelchair starts with your next Soda Tab. Since 2013, The Sweethearts Foundation has provided more than 600 customised wheelchairs to South Africans living with disabilities, giving children and adults the freedom, dignity, and independence that many of us take for granted. ✨ The incredible part? It costs virtually nothing to help. Across South Africa, everyday people collect Soda Tabs that would otherwise be thrown away. These small pieces of metal are recycled, and the proceeds help fund life-changing wheelchairs for those who need them most. ♻️ Every 3,000kg of Soda Tabs collected helps fund a standard wheelchair. It may sound like a lot, but when thousands of people each save just a handful of tabs, life-changing mobility becomes possible. Getting involved is easy: 📦 1. Collect Save your Soda Tabs and store them in a container, box, or bag as they accumulate. 📍 2. Deliver Once you've built up a collection, deliver it to your nearest Collection Point. Find your closest Collection Point here: https://www.sweetheartsfoundation.org/collectionpoints 📣 3. Share Encourage your friends, family, school, workplace, or community to start collecting too. The more Soda Tabs collected, the more wheelchairs we can help provide. That's it. 🏡 One household can start a collection. 🏢 One workplace can fill a box. ❤️ One community can help change a life. With more than 100,000 volunteers, 120 Collection Points, 60 participating schools, and over 380,000kg of recyclable materials diverted from landfill, together we're proving that small actions can create extraordinary impact. 🚀 Get started today with our Volunteer Impact Kit: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1tjbgxm7lyMx4rllI2YWKrQXxXCgx_P6N?usp=drive_link 🌐 Follow, share, and help us grow the movement: Website: https://www.sweetheartsfoundation.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thesweetheartsfoundation/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_sweethearts_foundation/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thesweetheartsfoundation ♻️ Turn tabs into mobility. 🦽 Help us give the gift of movement.
