This is what recycling should be about!
Agnes Anderson from Transition Mar Vista wanted to avoid sending 33 realtor signs to a landfill when her husband changed firms. With a little networking, her trash became someone elses treasure!
Six signs went to Free Arts for Abused Children (to be used for signage for their events) and the balance (27) were donated to reDiscover (for a more creative reuse)! Yay!
Think about these organizations or others like them before discarding something or holding a lawn sale.
