    <title>Ink Cartridge and Cell Phone Recycling</title>
    <content>Your used and empty ink jet, laser jet and other printer cartridges, as well as old cell phones, can be dropped off at the school.  We recycle them through an organized program that earns an average of $400 or more each year for our school.
Unfortunately, not all cartridges can be remanufactured which means they cannot be refilled and resold.  Please check the list  for qualifying items.
Used inkjet and laser printer cartridges are commodity items. They are bought and sold based on demand from consumers.   Certain cartridges and cell phones may fall in price or drop off the Qualifying List if demand decreases.
You will find Funding Factory recycling boxes clearly marked for ink jet, laser printer or cell phone recycling (3 boxes) in the hall way as you enter the school from the arcade.  We ask that you place just the qualifying cartrideds and phones in these boxes, placing the packaging in the paper recycling box found adjacent.  This will save our parent volunteers lots of time!   Thank you.</content>
