Did you know that you can recycle paper, newspapers, catalogs, magazines, junk mail, weekly advertisement circulars, TV Guides, folders, construction and poster paper, shredded paper, spiral notebook/theme books, office and school mail 24 hours a day 7 days a week at our 4H Center? (If dropping off shredded paper – please put in a bag. If dropping off theme books – please take off the front and back hardcover – the metal spiral may remain intact. You do not need to remove staples from paper. Please no cardboard or phonebooks).
Did you also know that we earn money for paper that is dropped off at our green and yellow recycling bin? Our recycling bin is located at the garages by the gym parking lot. This is an easy way for you to recycle your paper every week and help us raise money for the maintenance and improvements of the facility. It is easy to get started – just place an empty box near your trash can at home and place your paper in the box! Bring your paper to the center when your club meets!
Let your neighbors know they can contribute to our center as well! Do you know of a local business? Or a local print shop, grocery store or post office? Ask them to bring their paper to our bin! There is no financial commitment from you, just bring us your paper! For more information, log onto www.PaperRetriever.com. Please remember to bring your paper and drop it in the Abitibi Recycling Bin weekly. We will update you on our paper recycling progress!
Thank you for your year-round support of this important fundraising effort! Every time our bin is full – our facility saves 17 trees from being cut down! Don’t throw this piece of paper away, recycle it today!
Sincerely,
Roberta Bracken
Facility Manager
