FROM THE HP PTO

HP PTO is continuing to provide the opportunity to recycle cell phones and ink jet cartridges to raise funds.  There’s nothing to buy.  We are simply asking you to protect the environment by donating your used digital cell phone(s) and ink jet cartridge(s).  And now you can also recycle DVD movie(s)/ video game(s), & various consumer electronics.  Your used item(s) may be tax deductible and will be recycled in accordance with EPA regulations or refurbished and sold.  100% of the proceeds will help fund the HP PTO. Your support is greatly appreciated!! Please keep sending your items in. The collection box is located in the Main Office.  For more information, please contact Michelle Killmer at nwestmom@yahoo.com.
