Local E-Waste Recycling Helps School

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our local High School, Ygnacio Valley High is sponsoring an E- Waste recycling event this weekend.  

This is a fund raiser for the Y.V.H.S. Music Boosters.

The event is absolutely FREE! 

There's No Limit to the amount you can bring. 

They'll be open Saturday and Sunday from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM.

DID YOU KNOW?

If you took your average sized monitor to the local dump they will charge you anywhere from $35 to 50 dollars per piece just to dispose of it.  (they can't just bury it in the landfill)

The actual recycling is done by a professional company          www.UnWaste.com 

They gather, crush, shred, and then sort the material.  The heavy metals are separated, anything that can be (like the plastic) is recycled, and there is even small tiny bits of gold that your E-Waste contains.  Go ahead and just try and get that out!

 

IT'S CALLED A BENEFIT FOR A REASON

While the event is FREE, our kids would appreciate any donations - every dollar you donate goes directly to the kids music programs!   Let's just say with the recent budget cuts, they really need it!

Your donation is also tax deductible. 

The Music Booster Organization carries a 501(c)(3) designation  - just ask for a receipt!

I'll be helping both days, stop by and say HI!

Ok, maybe the GPS is a little too geeky.
