Restaurant fundraisers are simple. You have to eat. We need to earn some funds. Each restaurant has different rules for eligible purchases, so check with the Alliance if you are unsure. Generally, you get a coupon from us. You take the coupon and present it when you order during hours of our fundraiser and get some delicious dinner. The restaurant then gives the Alliance a percentage of sales for that time. The percentage varies by restaurant, but no matter how big or small the donation, it’s a win-win situation for all.

Many thanks to Piehl, Hanson, Beckman in Hutchinson for collecting cans in their office and donating the proceeds to the Alliance. We have received more than $88. Doesn’t sound like a lot?
That money will buy us printer ink cartridges, gas cards for a client or groceries for a client and her children. It all adds up, and you can help out by collecting cans in your office. Here is how it works:
- Collect your aluminum cans and take them to McLeod County Solid Waste Redemption Center on 1065 5th Ave. S.E., Hutchinson (or if you want, bring the cans to us and we’ll combine them with our office collection!)
- Let the employees there know you want your can redemption cash to go to the McLeod Alliance, a nonprofit organization. They will take your crushed or uncrushed cans and send us the cash.
For more information, call us at (320) 234-7933 or toll free at 1-800-934-0851. To check the current rate of aluminum can, call (320) 234-4346. They will give you the current price per pound of aluminum. Thank you for your support.
