We are now collecting empty inkjet cartridges for recycling. We receive 
up to $3. for each cartridge recycled. You can deposit your empty 
cartridges in our collection bin at every park day, parent's meeting, or 
coop. (WE could really use a volunteer, "keeper of the box", isn't that a 
"special" title<grin>). Most businesses simply place their empty 
cartridges in the garbage. So check with a businesses to see if they would 
donate their  "garbage". All you have to do is place your old cartridge 
in a plastic sandwich bag and deposit it in our collection bin. The 
money we collect could help our coop, or a family not able to pay 
membership, even the FPEA scholarship fund.

A list of acceptable cartridges will be along with the collection bin.
