Help Save the Planet While Saving Homeless Pets

Mt. Pleasant Animal Shelter announces a cell phone and toner recycling program which benefits the homeless pets at the Shelter.
 
Jan. 13, 2011 - PRLog -- Mt. Pleasant Animal Shelter is collecting used cell phones and toner cartridges (inkjet or laser) for the purpose of raising necessary funds to provide spay/neuter and medical care to the homeless pets we care for.

·          Mt. Pleasant will receive money for each cell phone or cartridge donated.   The items will go to a company that specializes in recycling and refurbishing used technology.

·         Your donation will help protect the environment, while your unwanted cell phones and inkjet or laser cartridges will be recycled in accordance with EPA regulations or refurbished and reused.  

·         They will make your un-needed technology available to those who can use it, while keeping it out of the landfill. If improperly disposed of, the cell phone can pollute up to 132,000 liters of drinking water.  Donations may be tax deductible.

We're very excited about this program.  This recycling program not only benefits Mt. Pleasant, but assists in preserving the environment and bringing communications to people who could not otherwise afford it.

All cell phones and toner cartridges are accepted. Please donate during Shelter adoption hours of Tuesday and Thursday from 12-7, Wednesday and Friday 12-4 and Saturday and Sunday from 12-5.  A collection bin can be found in the Shelter lobby.

Mt. Pleasant Animal Shelter is a non profit, no kill animal welfare organization.  The Shelter is located at 194 Route 10 West, East Hanover, NJ behind Petsmart.  Our mission is to place homeless cats and dogs into permanent, loving homes.  For more information, visit www.njshelter.org.
