SUMMARY:E-Waste Donation Drive
DESCRIPTION:Join Goodwill South Texas for their First Annual E-Waste Donation Drive! \n\nGoodwill Industries of South Texas & Dell Reconnect invite you to safely recycle your electronic waste at our E-Waste Donation Drive!\n\nWhat We Accept\n\nMonitors\n\nLaptops & Desktops\n\nTablets & Cell Phones\n\nPrinters & Scanners\n\nCords\, Cables\, Keyboards\, Mice & More\n \n\nWhy Participate\n\n\n	Dell Upcycles E-Waste: All the electronics you donate will be securely wiped clean and upcycled through Dell's Dell Reconnect program. Rest assured\; all data is completely destroyed so that donors can feel safe about their donations.\n	\n	Huge Environmental Impact: Last year\, we collected over 100 tons of e-waste! This year\, our goal is to double our impact and collect over 200 tons of e-waste! We need your support to help us meet and exceed this goal. Imagine the difference we can make with your contribution!\n	\n	\n	Goodwill Puts People Back to Work: Goodwill's overall Mission is to provide life-changing opportunities for people with a disability and/or any other barrier to employment. You would be contributing to providing our community with FREE job trainings and job placement opportunities. \n	\n\n\nWhy E-Waste Matters\n\nDid you know that electronic waste (e-waste) is one of the fastest-growing components of landfill waste? When improperly disposed of\, e-waste can release harmful toxins like lead\, mercury\, cadmium\, and brominated flame retardants into the environment. These chemicals seep into the soil\, pollute our water\, and pose serious risks to both wildlife and human health. By donating your e-waste\, you're making a direct impact on the environment and helping ensure a cleaner\, safer community for future generations.\n \n\nJoin our Green Team!\n\nWe're excited to invite your business or organization to be a part of an amazing initiative! By becoming a member of our Green Team\, you'll have the opportunity to make a lasting impact on the community while promoting sustainability and supporting a great cause.\n\n \nThis year\, we're thrilled to take our partnership with Dell Reconnect to the next level with our E-Waste Donation Drive! We want local businesses and organizations like yours to help spread the word about this historic event and join us as a Green Team member!\n\nWhat does being part of the Green Team look like?\n\nWe've made it easy for businesses and organizations to get involved\, with different levels of participation. And the best part? Level one is absolutely NO-COST! \n\nOur first Green Team partner\, La Palmera\, has already joined\, and we'd love for your organization to be part of this movement too!\n\nInterested in learning more?\n\nPlease reach out to our Community Engagement Manager\, Jennifer Hernandez\, for more details. You can email her at jhernandez@goodwillsouthtexas.com or give her a call at (361) 910-0963.\n\nLet's work together to create positive change in our community!
