Schools amass a staggering 5.2 tonnes of cork, indicating substantial waste material.
The Sternstunden action, a charitable initiative aimed at benefiting children in need, is ongoing in the region, and you can contribute by collecting and donating plastic bottle caps. Here's how you can participate in the bottle cap collection in Ingolstadt and its surroundings:
- Collect plastic bottle caps from your household or community. Make sure they are clean and free of any foreign objects.
- Bring them to designated collection points. These points are often set up at schools, local businesses, or community centers. In Ingolstadt, you can find collection points at the companies Oblinger and Pfoering. In Schrobenhausen, collection points are available at the company Gigler. In Neuburg, you can drop off your collected materials on the Volksfestplatz.
- Keep an eye out for specific drop-off locations or collection events announced by local organizations or the charity itself.
For precise details about how and where to participate, check:
- Official Sternstunden or Bayerischer Rundfunk websites or local announcements.
- Local community centers, recycling points, or social media pages promoting the campaign in your area.
- Contact local charities or municipal offices who may coordinate the collection.
It's important to note that the collection action is not limited to students; private individuals can also participate. The next day for handing in the collected material is December 3rd, so don't miss out on this opportunity to make a difference!
As of mid-July, 28 schools in the region have collected a total of 5.2 tons of bottle caps and metal screw caps, equating to 2.6 million bottle caps. Let's aim to increase this number and support children in need.

Education and self-development are not left behind in this charitable initiative. Alongside collecting plastic bottle caps, one can also engage in learning opportunities about recycling and environmental conservation by participating in the Sternstunden action. With this in mind, consider visiting designated collection points – often found at schools, local businesses, or community centers – to gather information about sustainable practices.
