Signal Hill · Calgary
Small bottles.
Big help for animals in need.
We are a local Signal Hill family collecting refundable bottles and cans for the Alberta Animal Rescue Crew Society (AARCS). AARCS rescues and rehomes animals in need and supports people and their pets. Every dollar we receive from bottle depots will be donated to support that work.

Why we are collecting
Helping AARCS rescue and rehome animals.
We collect and donate the bottle proceeds. AARCS does the rescue work—providing safe shelter, veterinary care, foster homes and a path to adoption for animals in need.

Good to know
A few quick answers.
What can I donate?
Refundable beverage containers accepted by Alberta bottle depots, including cans, bottles, cartons and drink pouches. Please empty liquids before pickup.
Do you collect outside Signal Hill?
For this first campaign we are concentrating on Signal Hill so our family can keep pickups short, safe and manageable.
Can bottle donors receive tax receipts?
No. This page collects refundable containers rather than monetary charitable gifts. We will publish proof when the bottle proceeds are donated to AARCS.
Is this an official AARCS website?
No. This is an independent, family-organized third-party fundraiser benefiting AARCS. It is not operated by AARCS.
