Help us earn CASH from your old cell phones and ink cartridges.

 
It's easy!

Through a recycling company called The FundingFactory, St. Victor has been recycling printer cartridges and cell phones for cash. This program is free and easy, but it won't work without your support.

In order to help out, you simply need to donate empty laser and inkjet cartridges. These cartridges can be from printers, fax machines, and even desktop copiers. Do you have a cell phone or two lying around and you wonder what to do with them? Send them to school and we'll recycle them.

By recycling these cartridges and phones through FundingFactory, we earn points. We can use these points to buy hardware, software or equipment for PE.  Recently we earned three digital cameras for the teachers and students to use. 

If we choose, we can also turn the points into cash.  At the beginning of the year our points were turned into cash to purchase a lab license for the new KidPix X program. 

PLEASE NOTE:  We only recycle cell phone batteries if it comes with the phone.  We do not accept nor recycle broken cell phones or the batteries, chargers, or the documentation that comes with cell phones. 

So where do I bring the cartridges or cell phones?
You can donate your empty cartridges or old cell phones by bringing them into the school office and leaving them on the bench.   If you have questions regarding this program, you can check out the FundingFactory website by clicking the logo above or email the coordinator, at E-mail.


Do you work for a big company or one that uses a lot of cartridges?
There is a way where your company can "adopt" St. Victor's School. Boxes with shipping labels can be sent to your company and all you'd need to do is fill the boxes, seal them, and send them. There would be no need to bring the cartridges or cell phones to school. St. Victor's will get extra points for all businesses that adopt us. For more information about the Business Support Program please contact a FundingFactory Customer Service Representative toll free at 1.888.883.8237 or you can contact Mr. Hinkle.

A big thank you to Symmetricom  and most recently, Laser Scope, who adopted us.   Can you help, too?
 Thank you for your support.
