Chicago Heights, IL-(ENEWSPF)- Generation Green, a student-run recycling program at Marian Catholic High School, is sponsoring the 4th annual Community Electronics Recycling Drive on Saturday, May 10, from 9:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m., in Marian Catholic High School’s parking lot.

Generation Green, which oversees the recycling program at Marian Catholic, throughout the school year, includes roughly 12 Marian Catholic student volunteers who will assist with moving electronics from vehicles on the day of the event.

If it plugs in the wall, Generation Green will take it. This free service recycles unwanted or broken electronics, including computers, monitors, printers, laptops, TV’s, stereo equipment, microwaves, or large household appliances. These items may be dropped off at the school’s parking lot at 700 Ashland Avenue, Chicago Heights, Illinois.

Jennifer Clifford, moderator of the event, is extremely enthused for students to make a difference through recycling in the community.

“The recycling drive just keeps on getting bigger and bigger,” said Jennifer Clifford. “It’s such a valuable experience for the students involved with Generation Green, on top of working hard, the kids are able to learn the importance of recycling.”
