Summer 2009

Through donating old cell phones and recycling ink and toner cartridges, ACA is thinking green while supporting its community at the same time.

For the last 7 years, ACA has been sending its old cell phones to an organization named CALL to PROTECT^® (www.calltoprotect.org). CALL to PROTECT^® is an organization that refurbishes and sells or recycles old cell phones, giving 100% of the proceeds to prevent domestic violence.

All used ink and toner cartridges at ACA are delivered to a local school and library toward their recycling efforts. The school and library are able to turn these used cartridges into revenue to support their programs.

For more information on these programs, or if you have a suggestion about a recycling effort you’d like to see at ACA, please email Lisa Smith.
