St. John Regional Turns Post Earth
Day Event Electronic
| Frederick, MD (April 21, 2008) –To most people, the word recycling, brings about images of aluminum cans, glass bottles, paper and cardboard. But there is a lot more material that needs proper recycling. Most homes have old and obsolete electronic items sitting around waiting to be used again. As we all know, they never get reused. They just take up space in closets, basements or worse, get thrown in the landfill. Saturday, May 3rd is designated as Frederick County’s day to recycle old electronics. Everyone has old PCs, laptops, printers, monitors, cell phones, stereos and other hardware to dispose of which because of toxins such as lead, barium, phosphorus, mercury and other dangerous toxins must be kept out of our landfills. St John Regional Catholic School and e-EndUSA will be hosting Frederick’s first electronic recycling event. This event will be held on Saturday, May 3rd from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM at St. John Regional Catholic School, 8414 Opossumtown Pike. |  |
| Steve Chafitz, e-EndUSA President, gave over 500 St. John students a hands-on demonstration in electronic recycling. During a recent school assembly, pre-school to 7th grade students, learned about the benefits of responsible e-cycling and the dangers of improper disposal of electronics. The recycling concepts learned at the assembly will be put into action, in the Frederick community during St. John and e-EndUSA’s county wide electronic recycling event. “Electronic recycling is essential and we need to keep this toxic material out of our landfills,” stated Arleen Chafitz, owner of e-EndUSA. “Our May 3rd event with St. John School will be a first for the Frederick area. We are excited to be able to help everyone safely recycle their old electronics,” she added. e-EndUSA is a Frederick based electronics recycling and electronic data destruction firm and they recycle electronic material in conformance with federal, state, and local regulations. The community is assured electronic materials are being responsibly recycled due to e-EndUSA’s Zero-Landfill Policy. The benefits of safely recycling electronics are significant since electronics are the fastest growing segment in the waste industry. The event will not only benefit the environment, a portion of the event’s fees will go to help St. John’s computer and technology needs. Click here for flyer information.
