Bottledrop Fundraiser
Jump on board by participating in our BottleDrop Fundraiser. Easily turn your bottles and cans into cash for Gilbert House’s new Bubble Exhibit and Outdoor Inventor’s Yard at a BottleDrop location near you. Here’s how you can participate:
• Request blue collection bags from the front desk at the Museum. These bags are labeled with the Museum’s barcode.
• Fill the bags with your empty cans/bottles and drop them off at any BottleDrop redemption center. All proceeds will be added to the Museum’s fundraiser account.
• Consider collecting cans/bottles from your neighborhood, as well. People are often quick to donate their recyclables to a good cause.
