The Caring for Creation Ministry is again teaming with Holland BPW, Consumer’s Energy, CompRenew and others for an electronics waste recycling collection on Saturday, May 16, at the Holland BPW building at 625 Hastings Avenue, from 8:00 a.m. to 12 noon.
Caring for Creation will receive four cents per pound of waste collected. In addition, large working appliances such as refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, and dehumidifiers are eligible for rebates from HBPW and Consumer’s Energy.
There are several ways you can help with this project:
1.Volunteer to help for a two hour shift at the Hastings Avenue collection site or as part of a crew that will be collecting items for Hope Church members and friends. Contact Joe Arevalo if you can assist in this way.
2.Tell your friends, neighbors, and relatives about it and join together to bring items for recycling.
3.If you are unable to bring large items to Hastings Avenue yourself, call or email the church office by Thursday, May 14, and we will make arrangements to pick them up.
4.If you have only small items, (a grocery bag full or less) bring them to church on Sundays, May 3 or 10 and members of Caring for Creation will collect them there.
