Join our E-waste Awareness Project!! 

Come CELEBRATE EARTH MONTH IN APRIL with us and HELP MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

April is the month to be mindful of ways we can help planet Earth.  Earth Day has been celebrated each April 22 since its beginnings in 1970.  🌏

So......we invite you to join us for a fun, educational, community-building opportunity that celebrates Earth Month with other youth!!

Promote recycling in your school and community by raising awareness about the importance of e-waste recycling. You can either start a group or take on a personal project to encourage participation in one of Let's Get Together's TechCollect & Ewaste Drives in April, where people can drop off old electronics, batteries and metal waste for proper recycling.

Organize friendly competitions between schools to see who can collect the most e-waste, collaborate with local businesses, host educational events at your school or in your community, and track progress to keep the momentum going.   We will provide you with the materials to help you and your group get started!

This initiative helps protect the environment by properly disposing of harmful electronic waste and conserving valuable resources.
