North Star Academy's Electronic Waste Recycling Event!

This Saturday, February 23rd 
9 a.m. - 3 p.m.
At North Star Academy: 400 Duane St., Redwood City

North Star Academy will be holding an Electronic Waste Recycling Event at the school site this Saturday. The event will be a great opportunity for anyone to clean the garage and closets of non-usable electronics equipment.

North Star is working with Zak Enterprises of Silicon Valley for this event.  In turn, Zak Enterprises works with the trained staff of Hope Services to sort the materials according to their individual properties. 

Working with Hope Services allows Zak to provide employment and training for people with developmental disabilities.  We continue this community emphasis by using this fundraising event to ensure that all 6th-graders at North Star have the opportunity to attend the annual Yosemite trip.  

Thank you, and we'll see you this Saturday with all your recyclable e-waste!

Thank you for posting this. As a teacher who represents 500 teachers, we routinely pay out of ourRead More own pockets to support our students.

Jennifer, thank you for all your wonderful work on Patch. Life is a journey and you're on yours.Read More It will be an amazing change for you and family. Real estate will definately be cheaper, which is my bigest gripe with rentals in the bay area. I wish you all the happiness you deserve. Linda Allen

Jennifer: I really enjoyed working with you on the story about the Barnes family and Ballet AmericaRead More back in December. Also liked "following you around town" on the other stories you covered. There will be lots of great people and exciting news back east -- not to worry. Best of luck.

So why do you keep voting for bigger Government? Seems the consumers have solved the problemRead More without "It's" help.
Lou Covey, The Local Motive March 31, 2013 at 12:43 pm
This is a much more effective means for dealing with the issue. Legislation is not.

I agree, the public has the right to know what they are eating. It is absurd to be purchasing foodRead More that contains GMOs and not be able to know it is in the food.... why the secret if it is so safe??? I will not shop at any food stores that refuse to provide the public with information on what I am eating or serving to the people I care about. Trader Joes and Whole Foods have my loyalty for having the courage to stand up against the big guys and set an example by doing what is right for the consumer and not folding to pressure from Monsanto, Dupont and the other corporate giants that could care less about our safety and only care about how much money they can rake in.
