Local Companies partner to help local schools 'Go Green' and make some Green for the community

NOVATO, Ca - With the tough economy and recent cutbacks to education funding, it seems as if our schools have slipped further down the priority list for the state of California. Fortunately, a few local businesses have partnered in an effort to raise money for Marin County schools. These types of events have been extremely successful. In January, Lu Sutton Elementary of Novato hosted a similar event, and in just 4 hours collected over 10,000 lbs (5 tons!) of old computers, monitors, cell phones, printers and other reusable/recyclable equipment.

This is a clear win/win for everyone: schools are tapping a revenue stream and encouraging closer community support while offering a way for neighborhood residents to clear out their closets and garages with environmentally conscious e-waste disposal which would otherwise end up in landfills.

On April 7^th, you are invited to attend an informational meeting about organizing your own event to benefit your school. Half of all proceeds from these events go directly to the host school. If you would like to find out more about scheduling a fundraising event for your school, please RSVP to Steve@ComputerSolutionsofMarin.com with 'Fundraiser' in the subject line, and also plan to attend our informational meeting on Wednesday, April 7th at 5:30pm, at the Design Build Specialists showroom located at: 1559 S. Novato Blvd, Suite C, Novato, CA 94947. Design Build Specialists are Certified Green Builders and have offered their showroom, free of charge, to support our schools and our community.
