Why Raising 2 Million Cans Matters to You


Recycling aluminum cans is more than just tossing them in a bin. It’s about saving energy, reducing waste, and protecting our planet. When you recycle cans, you help reduce the need for mining new aluminum, which is a resource-heavy process. Plus, recycling aluminum saves up to 95% of the energy needed to make new cans from raw materials. That’s a huge win for the environment!


Here’s the best part: recycling cans creates jobs and supports local businesses in Pierce County. It’s a win-win! So, when you join the effort to raise 2 million cans, you’re not just helping the planet—you’re helping your community thrive.
