Ladies And Gentlemen, I Have An Announcement!

After about a year of saving cans, we finally turned them in! We expected about five dollars to come out of the whole thing. Boy, were we wrong.

We made 10 dollars!

BUT...

My mom matched the money so we have 20 dollars!

We took pictures of all the ridiculously cool things. Here they are:

These are blocks of aluminum cans I think, quite like what I brought in.


This is me putting a bag of cans into a wheelbarrow thingy that they used to weigh the cans.

More me putting the cans in.

This is the machine that made the cans into giant blocks. It was a bit like WALL-E the movie.

More of the machine.

I hope this post has inspired you to recycle. I am going to save more cans
because it was so cool!

Please Donate

Update 6/5/09: It's about time! I'm going to bring the cans in SOON!
Update 2/14/09: Happy Valentine's Day! I'm still saving up the cans.

Update 12/31/08: If you'd like to see the website, Heifer International is running on my Adsense.

Update 12/29/08: When I find a place to crush cans, I'll start that. But if by this way I raise enough, I'll buy a water buffalo. Maybe a water buffalo and some other animals.


Have you seen the widget I've put up? It's right on top. I'm raising $250. (I'm not gonna get it all from people who donate, no. I'm also recycling cans for money.) Anyway, I'm gonna get $250, then donate it to the Heifer Project, and buy a water buffalo. If you don't know what the Heifer Project is, it's basically a group that gets animals to help needy people. A water buffalo does a lot of things. (It's not for me. I've got Voldemort.) You can donate through the blue widget. Click it, and enter how much you want to pay through PayPal.
