Castro Valley High School Electronics Recycling Fundraiser

Free Electronics Recycling Collection Event Saturday, November 16, 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM Castro Valley High School 19400 Santa Maria Ave Castro Valley, CA 94546

Electronic wastes or e-wastes are old or obsolete electronics—items that use electricity or batteries—that you wish to throw away like old cellphones, laptops, personal computers, printers, television sets, radio sets, telephones, etc. Disposing them isn’t as easy as shooting them through a garbage bin. Electronics contain toxins that will be harmful to the environment and human health when not tended to property.

Elementary schools have started making a trend of organizing electronic recycling fundraisers. The great thing about this extra-curricular activity is that it hits two birds with one stone. One the one hand, the activity encourages people to recycle their electronic wastes. On the other hand, since this is an elementary school, the event actually teaches students the importance and the value of recycling e-wastes. In the case of Castro Valley High School, the activity allowed people to donate their electronics while sending those that can no longer be used to All Green Electronics Recycling, a company with the most reputable recycling facility in the state.

Bring all of your old electronics, including:
