Students will be collecting, cleaning and bagging returnable bottles for redemption. The Berlin Lions Club has generously pledged to match the collected funds. Interact will use the profits to support ShelterBox, a global Rotary initiative.

ShelterBoxes are disaster relief tents that provide emergency shelter and life-saving equipment following disasters such as earthquake, volcano, flood, hurricane, cyclone, tsunami or conflict.
