Raise money for New Futures Nepal by recycling your used ink cartridges, old mobile phones, MP 3 players, digital cameras & satnav devices.You have raised over £940 so far...thank youHere’s how:We have set up a link through Greensource Solutions based in Bristol who recycle used mobile phones and used ink cartridges. It’s easy and free! You collect and send your used ink cartridges or old mobile phones in designated free post bags and in return the charity will receive an income based on the number of items recycled. The payment per item is small so the more you can collect and the more people who can collect on our behalf the better. How do I collect and send the items?
Please contact us on info@newfuturesneapl.org and we will send you a bag to get you started. When you have filled your bag send it freepost to the address on the bag. Please put your name and address on the bag so that you can be logged on to their database and a new bag sent back to you to continue collecting on our behalf.
Which items can I collect?
Small inkjet cartridges, mobile phones, MP3 players, digital cameras, satnav devices can be collected to send to Greensource Solutions in the freepost bags provided. NB: Larger items such as laser jet cartridges would require courier collection (free bulk collection).
Can my business or any large organisation collect for New Futures Nepal?
If you are a business or large organisation and can recycle your larger ink cartridges for us, please contact us on info@newfutursnepal.org so we can set up the courier service for you with Greensource Solutions. Alternatively, you can contact Greensource Solutions directly on info@greensource.co.uk or tel 01173042390. Courier collections can be arranged from any location in the UK and are usually with Fedex and collected in 1-3 days. Larger palletised collections are made by Hills couriers. There is a charge of £2.50 per courier collection deductable from the amount raised so please bear this in mind when collecting and send larger quantities to make it cost effective.
How much is raised per mobile or cartiridge?
A different amount is raised for every recyclable cartridge and mobile phone. For example, the return on one inkjet cartridge can range from 25p to £1 per cartridge whereas mobile phones have a higher value but are generally collected in smaller quantities. If you can collect 75 units per collection it is more cost effective and our return will be better. Whilst the return per item is small if enough people collect on our behalf we can help to boost our funds significantly.
The more you collect the more difference we make in Nepal!
Of course, there are many other ways to raise funds for us, SPONSOR A CHILD, REGULAR DONATIONS, join one of OUR EVENTS AND CHALLENGES or just visit the ‘HOW TO HELP’ page.
