Bottle Drive Volunteers


​​​​​Bottle Drive Volunteers Needed

Handsworth Music Program's next Bottle Drive will take place on Saturday, April 18, 2026, and we would love your support to help make the day run smoothly.

We are currently looking for volunteers for the following roles:

• Drivers to help collect bottles and cans around the community

• Supervisors to support and guide students during the event

• Lunch helpers to assist with setup and food distribution

• Pizza donors to bring pizzas for our hardworking students and volunteers

Flyers will be distributed about three weeks before the event to help spread the word.

In the meantime, please start gathering bottles and cans at home and from friends, family, and neighbors. The more we collect, the more successful this fundraiser will be, so every bottle and can truly helps.

If you’re able to volunteer, please sign up using the link below (created by one of our talented Grade 12 students, Mr. Jordan Rahim):

Thank you so much for your support and generosity. With everyone’s help, I’m confident we can make this year’s Bottle Drive a great success.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at:

Warm regards,

Support your Handsworth Music Programs by donating your refundable bottles and cans to our Bottle Drive. Please remember that Handsworth Music has a Return It Express account which allows you to donate bottles throughout the year. With Return It Express, you can bring your bottles down to any Return It Express location (https://www.return-it.ca/locations/) in a clear bag. Print out a sticker at the kiosk using the Handsworth School number: 604-903-3600. Stick the sticker on the bag and leave it in the Return It Express area, and they will credit the Handsworth Music account. There is no sorting required. See video https://www.youtube.com/shorts/0MA-1KagYIY.
