Ball® Helps Seattle
A display of Ball® Jars in a downtown Seattle
The display includes more than 200 glass Ball® Jars filled with various objects such as fortune cookies, marbles, clothespins and toy race cars. According to a volunteer at the shelter, each jar contains a treasure or memento reminding the shelter’s occupants of their childhoods or homes before they encountered harder times.
A plaque on the wall next to the display reminds passersby what the wall of treasures truly means – “Can What You Can…Objects given and received interpret all of our links to the sacred place we all call home.”
