Cans for Kids at New Seasons
Mountian Park and McVey Locations
How to Participate:
Through a cooperative with New Seasons and Oregon Beverage Recycling, your used cans and bottles become a lucrative funding source for the Lake Oswego Schools Foundation.
Here’s how it works: Bring your cans and bottles to the Mountain Park New Seasons or the McVey New Seasons location. Look for the recycling center and find the one marked “Cans for Kids” - you’ll see a (slightly smaller) BLUE Oregon Recycling Beverage bag. Drop your cans and bottles in and voila, we receive money each quarter. It’s that easy!
Optional: Please fill out this quick form to let us know who to thank in our Annual Report. Thank you!
