July 22, 2021The Earth Day collection last month was a resounding success! Although each of our collections were impressive, we are happy to say that our electronics collections partner, RenTek, was able to collect 5,580 lbs total of electronic items, the second largest collection to date with Hilliard ESC.Â
They can use the materials to teach over 139 hours of job skills to the men and women in their training programs:
