Donate your Ring Tabs for a Good Cause

Dear Friends,
This is an act of kindness that most of us are capable of giving. The next time you are out for meals with your friends or family member, consider making a small effort to collect the ring tabs from the canned drinks that you have bought. Such ring tabs are useful for recycling to make artificial limbs for the disabled. Also, it is environmentally friendly to recycle the ring tabs.
You can get all your friends/ colleagues involved in this activity, consolidate all the ring tabs and bring them down to "Rings for Lives" Volunteer Group at their collection point. The group will bring all these donated ring tabs to the Prostheses Foundation of H.R.H The Princess Mother (Thailand), which provides free prostheses for under-privileged amputees, regardless of nationality or religion. "Rings for Lives" Volunteer Group will be travelling to Thailand in early November so you have a few months to collect the ring tabs, among friends and family members.
The collection point is at:
115A Commonwealth Drive #03-16
Singapore, Singapore 149596
Please contact them at 64743997 to arrange for collection before dropping by.
More Info:
"With other materials combined with pull rings from cans, prostheses made by Dr Therdchai Jivacate are lighter, more comfortable and 10 times less expensive than imported ones. Since the beginning, in 1992, the Foundation sends mobile units to rural areas providing prostheses to all under-privileged amputees. The mobile unit also provide services outside Thailand, like Malaysia, Laos, Myanmar & China."
