Collecting caps in aid of Friends of the Blind

Since 2015, Club Brugge Foundation has had a partnership with Friends of the Blind, the training centre for guide dogs in Koksijde. Thanks to the organisation, the dogs can be made available to users free of charge. Training a dog (from puppy to superhero) easily costs 25,000 euros. This is where we, with the Club Brugge Foundation, want to lend a hand.

You can help Friends of the Blind by collecting plastic caps! Club Brugge will collect the caps and deliver them to Friends of the Blind. They then resell the plastic caps as raw material to a recycling company. The full training of a guide dog requires 83,333 kg of plastic caps. That's a lot so we can definitely use your help!

All supporters collecting caps at home can bring them in to the FCB Kaffee in the Jan Breydel Stadium. This is possible every weekday except on Mondays and match days.


Which caps are accepted

All plastic caps of mineral and aerated water, soft drinks, fruit juice and milk can be saved, as can caps of liquid detergents, fabric softeners and aerosol cans. In addition, caps of choco, peanut butter and speculoos spread are also accepted, provided the paper inside is removed.
