The Electronic Waste Recycling Event

Our recent event was a great success.  We won't know the total amounts collected for a few days yet but the truck was so full when it left, we weren't sure it was all going to fit inside!


EDIT:  Just found the link to the story about our event in the Glendale News Press.  Thanks to everyone who contributed to the event!

We started with five boxes and they began to fill pretty quickly.






Before long, the boxes were overflowing with all manner of electronic junk!





People in the community would drive in, and our band students would unload and log their donations.

















We collected stacks of TVs.





Piles of Computers.









And tons of other stuff.


At the end of the day, the truck was packed.













And it was a very successful day.

Thanks to our friends at www.e-wastefundraising.org, this was a successful event.  We are already planning on running this event every January, so save up!

As always, HTMB Boosters gladly accepts donations of any kind, monetary to goods and services and can provide a tax deductible receipt for every donation.

Also, click the link for the WISH LIST on the right.  Perhaps there is something in there you can provide us with!
