The TOP ReCycling Project is one of TOP’s ongoing community initiatives that combines environmental protection with social impact. Our goal is to reduce waste, promote sustainable living, and raise funds to support schools for the visually impaired—both locally and abroad.

In California, beverage containers with the “CRV” (California Refund Value) label can be recycled for cash refunds. By collecting these plastic bottles and aluminum cans, we not only help minimize landfill waste and lower disposal costs, but also turn recyclables into meaningful donations that fund educational resources, Braille materials, and daily supplies for visually impaired students.

✅ How you can help:

• Collect plastic bottles and aluminum cans with the CRV mark (look for “CA CRV” or “California Redemption Value” on the label).
• Make sure the containers are empty, clean, and not crushed.
• Drop them off at TOP’s designated collection sites or during community recycling events.

Every bottle and can counts — together, we can protect our planet and brighten the future for visually impaired students, one recycle at a time.

The TOPart project is led by multiple award-winning students, recognized by prestigious honors such as the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards and Congressional Art Awards. With years of experience across various artistic disciplines, including drawing, sketching, watercolor, and oil painting, our leaders provide expert guidance to participants of all skill levels.

The TOPart Project brings together kids and adults in our community through fun, hands-on arts and crafts activities. During the workshops, step-by-step assistance is offered to ensure everyone enjoys a fun, relaxing, and rewarding experience.

To share love and joy across borders, TOP Braille Cards Drive project organizes its members to design and create Braille greeting cards for students at schools for the visually impaired in both our local community and Nigeria. Each card is carefully handcrafted and includes heartfelt messages written in both print and Braille, allowing students to feel the warmth of the greetings through touch.

This project not only celebrates holidays such as Christmas, Lunar New Year, and Thanksgiving, but also helps raise awareness about Braille literacy and the daily challenges faced by visually impaired students.

Through this meaningful activity, our volunteers learn empathy, creativity, and the power of inclusion—spreading kindness one card at a time.
