Lioness Club collecting pull-tabs for charity

Again Canyon Lake residents are invited to collect pull-tabs for a fundraising project to benefit Loma Linda Ronald McDonald House.  Aluminum pull-tabs can be popped off of soda, beer, soup and other food cans.  Lioness members welcome donations of pull-tabs and combine them with their own collection to take to Loma Linda Ronald McDonald House.  Many clubs, businesses and organizations throughout Riverside and San Bernardino Counties deliver the pull-tabs they have collected.  The tabs are then weighed and sold with the proceeds going to Ronald McDonald House.

Dozens of families will be able to stay closer to their hospitalized children thanks to a recent expansion to the Loma Linda Ronald McDonald House.  In December of 2017 a 45,000 square foot expansion was accomplished, adding 33 new guest suites, tripling in size to meet the growing needs of more than 1,000 families served each year from areas including Riverside, San Bernardino, Coachella Valley and beyond.

The collection will be delivered on Friday, April 24.  Anyone wanting to donate pull-tabs may give them to any member of the Lioness Club or deliver them to Joanna Spiller at 23651 Cruise Circle Drive any time before April 22.

The Ronald McDonald House program began in 1974 based on a simple idea:

Provide a “home away from home” for families of seriously ill children receiving treatment at nearby hospitals.  Since that time more than 10 million families around the world have benefited from the comfort provided by a Ronald McDonald House.

Join with the Canyon Lake Lioness Club in this great cause by donating your pull-tabs.
