Ewaste Collection Event

GREENspot DROPoff, Inc. and California based Motion Picture & Television Fund team up to hold an e-waste collection event on Friday, August 24, 2012 from 8:30am to 1:30pm at its Wasserman Campus. Started in 1921, The Motion Picture & Television Fund is a primary resource for care and services, exclusively for the union and non-union entertainment community.

For each eligible item recycled at the event, GREENspot DROPoff will donate $1 to the MPTF. Eligible items include computers, monitors, laptops, flat screens and televisions.

What is ewaste? - Ewaste is anything you plug in that you want to throw out!
