The challenge to keep our landfills clean of e-waste will culminate with the community-wide Earth Day celebration in downtown Royal Oak on April 25 (12pm-4pm). You can help keep our soil and ground water safe from harmful chemicals released by e-waste simply by bringing your old electronics with you! Just look for Recycling for Charities and their eco-friendly Smart Car. And don't forget, you can also write these donations off on your taxes!
All donations will benefit Recycling for Charities and their efforts to fight the e-waste epidemic while supporting non-profits across the nation.
