School districts and nonprofit organizations across the county have been dealing with huge budget cuts, but we’ve found a way to supplement our finances to get the equipment we need.
Irving IMC is participating in the FundingFactory® Recycling Program! This fundraiser is FREE and simple because there’s nothing to sell, no paperwork to fill out and no deadline. The program runs year-round, accumulating constant income for our efforts. But we won’t get very far without your support. Please donate your empty printer cartridges, cell phones, small electronics, and laptops to our IMC and we’ll take it from there! We will recycle the cartridges, cell phones, small electronics, and laptops through FundingFactory to earn new equipment for our school.
Last year alone, more than 300 million cartridges were thrown away, while 30,000,000 cell phones were tossed or replaced. We’re alleviating the volume of waste that goes into landfills, while collecting equipment we need to keep our school running smoothly. Your help is vital to our fundraising success. Cartridges, cell phones, small electronics, and laptops can be dropped off at Irving Elementary School.
FundingFactory also sponsors a businesses support program, where your employer can help out our school without spending a cent. FREE prepaid shipping labels can be sent, free of charge, directly to any business, organization or other facility within the continental United States. Business supporters simply need to load boxes, apply a FREE prepaid shipping label and leave them for the next UPS pickup. If you work for a company that may be interested in supporting us, please call FundingFactory toll-free at 1.888.883.8237. Give the customer service representative our school identification number, 304622, and they’ll set you up to support our account.
If you have any questions about this great opportunity, please feel free to e-mail me at hausknechtj@wawm.k12.wi.us. Thank you for your support!

P.S. You probably noticed the Recycling Rumble box in the right hand column. Recycling Rumble matches participants against one another for a friendly one-on-one recycling competition. The winner in each pairing will earn a 25% bonus on all items they shipped to FundingFactory February 13-April 30, and the organization that recycles the most overall nationwide will also receive the latest Apple iPad.
