Inkjet Cartridge Recycling a Lions Club Project Notebook

This is a HOW TO guide in developing a simple Inkjet Cartridge Recycling fundraising project for your club.  This is a very easy project.   It may not be a large fundraiser, but it is a continuous project that can involve most of the members of your club.

Resources Needed:  Inkjet Cartridge Recycling vendor that PAYS for empty inkjet cartridges.  One suggestion is TRI-R Recycling at www.trir.com

Manpower Requirements:

• Chairman:  One or Two
• Workforce:  Any member that is willing to collect Inkjet cartridges from friends and family

Time frame:  Year 'round

Earning potential:   At 50 cents per cartridge; each member in your club can find just one cartridge per week.  A twenty member club can earn $10 per week.  But if a club does not take the project too seriously,  It can easily earn an extra $100-$200 per year. 

Getting Started:   Contact your vendor about getting a startup kit; and suggestions on how successful groups run this project.  

Promote the project among your members.  Take a few moments to report the number of cartridges that you collected at this and the previous meeting.  Keep in short; but keep showing that the project is growing.

Indicate this project in your club bulletin regularly.   Mention this on your club's website and brochure.

Do you have a computer store and/or stationary store that will participate?
