The Simi Valley Education Foundation wants to encourage those of you out there to bring your old electronics in so that they can be disposed of in a safe manner. By law, such products must now be `e-recycled' -- and that means recycled properly and in ways that won't harm the environment. Be GREEN and help the Simi Valley Education Foundation earn money for every pound of E-waste recycled. All proceeds go to our public schools!!     =============================================================== First E-Waste Day A Success! Simi Valley Education Foundation held its first-ever E-WASTE Recycling Day last October, for items such as computers, laptops, monitors, televisions, scanners, cell phones, printers, fax machines, answering machines and keyboards. Don't call it junk -- it's e-waste. In its prime, perhaps only a year or two ago, it was the largest monitor, the fastest computer, the "newest and latest” TV. Today, it's e-waste: outdated, unwanted electronic equipment, plucked from closets, spare bedrooms and garages and now was recycled at this community-wide recycling day. More than 106,000 pounds of e-waste was collected, sorted and recycled. This Spring we are looking to do it again...this time BIGGER! And what's more -- all proceeds went directly to our public schools!!
