RECYCLING PROJECT - OUR ON-GOING FUNDRAISER

Our recycling project is underway! We have partnered with Enviro-Smart in an effort to raise funds for UCEMS and help protect the environment by recycling used printer cartridges and cell phones (we still encourage you to donate working cell phones to your local law enforcement agency or social service agency if they participate in placing the phones with potential victims of domestic abuse). Laser cartridges must be sent in special boxes. Please contact the Coordinator if you have a need for boxes or want her to pick up the cartridges from you. Inkjet cartridges and cell phones should be sent in the provided plastic return envelopes, however we receive more reimbursement for phones sent in special boxes. You can request these or the plastic bags from the Coordinator, or you may see them placed at businesses around Union County, either on rolls in a tower shaped box, or on a hanging strip. Returning the cartridges is easy! All of the boxes and the envelopes are already postage paid.

 

You can also participate without going through the coordinator. You can request supplies for shipping and collecting cartridges directly through Enviro-Smart and still help UC EMS. Just go to our recycling webpage to get started, and THANK YOU for your support! Visit now at: http://accounts.cartridgefundraising.com/website/?jde=2048930

 

This project is not limited to Union County. If you have friends or family that would like to participate, refer them to the above webpage, and we can collect cartridges from all over the state - and country!
