E-Cycling -- Collection of Electronics and Appliances to Send Me to Honduras!
I'm going back to Honduras! Yay!.....
but don't have the money for my ticket. Boo!
So, I've set up a fund raiser for me and my friends pay for our tickets, which means five more volunteers at the Olancho Aid Foundation in Juticalpa.
Saturday, May 16 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Saint Thomas Aquinas Church
103 Center Street, Bridgewater
Instead of bringing your broken electronics and appliances to the transfer station and paying the fee there, give your stuff to us and the fee you pay will go directly toward our efforts. Nothing needs to work!
Here's how it works:
1) you bring us your old appliances and electronics
2) you give us money to take it from you
3a) the guys from the recycling company put your stuff on their truck...
3b) we put the money in our Honduras fund
3c) you know you did a nice thing for someone less fortunate

Could you just toss your phone and small items in your kitchen rubbish for free? Sure. But the one dollar that phone would cost you is equivalent to an hour's pay for a Honduran... why not help them out?
