FCRI 2013 Fundraiser!!!!!  

Thank you for visiting the Four Corners Recycling Initiative website and for supporting recycling and sustainable living in Southwest Colorado! 

If you are a frequent recycler to one of our recycle bins (see drop-off location tab on the right-hand side of this website for exact locations), then you have probably encountered a bin overflowing with recyclables.  Unfortunately, recyclable items are often left on the ground next to the recycling bin, which then encourages more people to leave their recyclables on the ground as well.  As more and more people are using our bins, we are in the predicament of providing this service in a way that will accommodate the demands we are seeing in the community.  We are asking for YOUR help in addressing this need!  The Four Corners Recycling Initiative is asking for your participation in these key elements:

• PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE; do not leave recyclables next to the bin if it is full!!  This encourages others to follow your example and leads to littered and unsightly drop off locations.   Please take your recyclable items to another location or to the landfill location if you have an extremely large amount.  The landfill will not charge you for dropping of recyclables!
• Help FCRI raise enough funds to add one additional bin pick up per month at both the Dolores and Mancos school locations.  This would require us to raise approximately $2800 for the two locations.  Thanks to all of our great sponsors and from the monies generated from the recyclables, we are only able to pay for two bin pick-ups per month at this time.  Please help us raise the funds needed to provide you and our schools with more recycling space more often!!  Please contact us to donate or use the "Donate" tabs on this website.  All contributions are 100% tax deductible. 

 

Please do not hesitate to email us and provide feedback or suggestions on how we can help Southwest Colorado Reduce, Reuse and Recycle more effectively!

Thank You!
