CPAA Go Green Recycling Program: “How does the Go Green program help?”
“How does the Go Green program help?”
Go Green is a recycling program whose proceeds are used to support over 1700 people province wide. Programs are funded to enrich the lives of individuals with Cerebral Palsy and other disabilities.
The first aspect of Go Green is our clothing bin program. Collection bins around Alberta allow people to donate their lightly used clothes, which are then resold through Value Village. In Edmonton, the CPAA is also capable of picking up clothing from home addresses.
The second and third aspects of Go Green function slightly differently. Beverage container recycling bins and electronic waste collection boxes are provided for willing businesses and households. On the bins/boxes is a number that can be called when they are full so that we may pick them up. The CPAA takes full responsibility for the maintenance of the boxes and bins, as well as any damage to them that may occur.
For individuals who like to give in a big way, it is even possible to donate a car to the program!
Information on how to get involved with the Go Green program is available under the discussion topic “How can I take part in this program?”
