Recycle Your Ink Cartridge, Raise Funds for Peer Mentors


Help the Peer Mentors with their fundraiser:

1. Not with money
2. Not by working
3. Definitely not by war
4. Simply by recycling your ink cartridges!

Did you know....
*The plastic used in each printer cartridge takes more than 10 centuries (that's 1,000 years!) to decompose.
*More than 800 million recyclable cartridges lay in our landfills!
*Toner cartridges re-manufacturing saves over 38,000 tons of plastic and metal from landfills each year and saves more oil than was spilled by Exxon Valdez in Prince William Sound, Alaska.
*If you recycle, not only will you be redirecting waste from landfills you will help to reduce carbon emissions and conserve natural resources!

Please bring your empty ink cartridges to the Peer Assistance Resource Center office, located in Building 3 Room 116 or contact Sidoney Wilson, Peer Mentor, at 292-2552.

Help save our Earth and support a good cause!
