Earth Day Recycling Drive puts money into local schools.
Earth Day Recycling Drive puts money into Local Schools Sponsored by Cartridge World
Boise,
Idaho ~ Re-Cartridge-Cycle (RCC) is excited to announce an Empty
Cartridge Recycling Drive taking place in local schools this April. The
Recycling Drive will collect empty ink and laser printer cartridges,
and will take place from April 2nd – April 22nd, in recognition of
Earth Day on April 22nd. RCC hopes to encourage students in the
Treasure Valley to take action on what they are learning about
recycling.”Earth Day is a great opportunity for students to not only
learn about the benefits of recycling, but to have an opportunity to
act on what they are learning. We want students to really be excited
about keeping recyclables, like printer cartridges, out of our
landfills. It’s a great added incentive for students to earn money for
their school and to have the opportunity to win a pizza party”, says
program director Sarah Warnock.The Recycling Drive will pay schools for
each cartridge that can be reused, and will reward an additional $500
to the school that collects the most in those three weeks. The winning
school will also receive a pizza party for the classroom that collects
the most during the drive.Support your School!
If you know
your school is involved, drop off your empty printer, fax and copier
cartridges during regular school hours – between the dates of April 2nd
and April 22nd. Your school will be rewarded “Cash for your Trash”, and

resources and school programs. They need your support!Is your School Involved?
