## Goodwill of Orange County ##

Goodwill collects over 136,000 lbs of E-waste in April thanks to local Businesses and eco-minded Recyclers!

In April, E-waste collection events were held in the City of Santa Ana at the Floral Park clean up event, the Hoag Memorial Hospital, the City of San Juan Capistrano, Kaiser Permanente in both Anaheim and Irvine, Department of Toxic Substance Control in Cypress, Ladera Ranch, Hyundai Motors and CB Richard Ellis at Wells Fargo Tower in Irvine. In addition to offsite collection events, Goodwill teamed up with Toshiba for half day Earth Day collection events at 16 Goodwill stores. Toshiba staff worked side-by-side with Goodwill employees and rewarded early bird recyclers when they dropped off working or non-working electronic waste by handing out $10 Starbucks gift cards and Toshiba water bottles.
