Bottle Drive!
Good news for a change.
We’re ready to take back all those bottles you’ve been hoarding.
Please:
- Review the list of bottles we’re accepting
- Clean them
- Drop them off on Sunday, July 12th, behind the store
- Receive your deposit or leave it as a donation in support of St. Clair Supports The Stop!
Led by local business Cocoa Latte, the program raises money for St. Clair chefs and stores who prepare hundreds of healthy, wholesome takeout meals for The Stop’s Wychwood Open Doors— a drop-in centre that works with neighbours experiencing issues like homelessness.
It’s a win/win/win (a theme lately). Count ’em:
- Get back your space
- Support local businesses
- Help neighbours most deeply impacted by COVID-19
