When you bring your refundable beverage containers to a recycling depot you can donate the refund and support a local charitable organization.
Each year, charitable and non-profit organizations in Victoria County can apply to take part in the Charity of the Month Fundraiser. Groups selected through this program receive the refund proceeds from donated beverage containers collected at our recycling depots during their assigned month.
How the program works
The following non-profit community groups have been selected by random draw to receive refund donations at the Jim Bradley Recycling Depot (Baddeck) and the New Haven Recycling Depot.
