The student group partners with the Waterbury and Mad River Valley Rotary clubs for a variety of community service projects. This year’s drive will support Planned Parenthood which, for over 100 years, has worked to "ensure all people have access to the care and resources they need to make informed decisions about their bodies, their lives, and their futures." Planned Parenthood provides reproductive education and health services to millions of people around the world and in Vermont.
The Interact club is seeking all 5- and 15-cent redeemable bottles and cans. Last year’s drive raised $900 and this year’s goal is $1,200.
To participate, drop off bottles and cans at one of the locations below, or request a pickup. Direct any questions to Interact club adviser Ellen Berrings at eberrings@huusd.org.
