Computer E-Cycling

Drive Results: 3330 lbs

That's how much this year's computer recycling drive at Holy Spirit kept out of landfills. In addition, Wings for West Africa will send the good computers to schools in Senegal. That means that in just two weekend events, the young Environmental Stewardship Ministry has recycled over 3 tons of computers

The Environmental Stewardship Ministry is sponsoring a computer recycling event the weekend of May 1-2. This event will not only reduce polluting our landfills but support schools and teachers in West Africa. We will be collecting computers, monitors, keyboards, computer cables/cords, etc for the following local non-profit groups:

Wings for West Africa http://www.wafwings.org/ is a local group that test, refurbishes and ships computers to schools in rural West Africa and then trains teachers and provides tech support for the computers.

WorkForce, Inc, http://www.work-force-inc.com/ is a local organization that uses old non-working computers and electronics to employ, rehabilitate, and train ex-offenders for re-entering the work force.

Concerned about personal information that might be on a computer that you want to recycle? Wings for West Africa uses a software to erase hard drives of donated computers. For peace of mind, you can wipe your hard drive out yourself with the same software available for download at http://www.dban.org/.

Drop offs will be accepted before and after masses in the lobby of the Parish Live Center. The next Environmental Stewardship Ministry meeting will be Thursday, April 29, at 7pm in the PLC. For more information, please contact Nathan Rues at (317) 250-9118 or at environmentalstewardship@hotmail.com.
