DON'T DUMP IT! DONATE IT TO P.A.N.D.O.R.A.!
SAVE THE ENVIRONMENT!
P.A.N.D.O.R.A. is going "Green"! Did you ever wonder what to do with your old cell phones? How about your ink toners and ink cartridges? It is easy now! Simply donate them to P.A.N.D.O.R.A. and we through the assistance of Dade Recycling, Miami, Florida, will participate in a fundraiser recycling program that will benefit our environment by reducing some of the excessive and toxic waste found in our landfills.
With your donated items, you will help us to raise some "green" - some small chunk - to cover some of our operating expenses. It is indeed a very "green" and smart way to get rid of these items, benefit P.A.N.D.O.R.A., and our community as well as protecting our health and our planet.
