Each year firefighters statewide collect aluminum cans at local fire departments.
Money is earned through recycling and provide about a penny per can.
For the past two years, the ACBC recycling program and YES campaign have joined to fund Camp Can Do. Last year nearly 50 burned children ages six to 15, swam in the ocean, sang karaoke songs, and donned fire fighting gear for relay races at this specially-designed camp. Every year at Camp St. Christopher on Seabrook Island, firefighters from all over the state volunteer their time to transport children and serve as camp counselor. Along with Camp Can Do, YES and ACBC funds benefit burn children s recovery, family needs, fire and burn safety education, development and research. MUSC s pediatric burn team treats more than 100 young burn patients per year.
