Sharon
Spudich of Poulsbo Chapter is chairing this committee for us. All pill
bottles must be cleaned per the instructions below before she will accept them.
Any Grand Officer will be happy to gather your pill bottles and get them
to Sharon.
Ministries accepts donations of empty plastic pill bottles for inclusion in
shipments of medical supplies. Acceptable collection items include:
§ Prescription and over-the-counter pill bottles
§ Prescription and over-the-counter pill bottles
§ Large
and small pill bottles
§ Pill
Bottles with and without secure caps (child resistant)
Pill
bottles that are not appropriate to include with shipments of medical supplies
are recycled for cash that goes towards Matthew 25: Ministries’ programs. If
you wish to prepare bottles for shipment rather than recycling, please adhere
to the following guidelines:
§ Bottles
included in shipments of medical supplies must have an all plastic lid.
§ Sort
bottles by color and type.
§ Remove
labels, leaving no glue or residue.
§ Wash
bottles in very hot water and dish soap.
§ Rinse
and dry thoroughly.
§ Replace
lids on clean, dried bottles.
§ Place
clean, recapped bottles in large ziplock bags marked “Clean Bottles.” These
will be blended with medical supplies.
Thank you in advance for your
willingness to participate in this service project.
Hugs,
Jean Ballard,Worthy Grand Matron
