Skyy
There's a fellow on Prince Edward Island named, Gar Gillis, and in 2002, he built a village out of glass bottles (28,000 of them). He's quick to say that he never drank any of them - they were all given to him by the community when they heard what he was doing. Lot's of people were interested in having a look and he decided to open it to the public by donation. All proceeds went to the IWK Pediatric Hospital in Halifax, Nova Scotia. In September of this year, he surpassed $100,000 in donations. That's pretty cool in my books.
I liked this small part of his efforts because of the colorful bottles set against the Skyy - intentionally spelled that way because it was on the roof of a small house largely built of Skyy Vodka bottles.
If you happen to be in the area, drop in and contribute to his worthy cause. You can check him out here: www.cbc.ca/player/play/2260448835750
