Dear Patron:
I know you're busy, so we won't give you a long discussion on why you should recycle, chances are, you already know. So we'll just take a moment to tell you about our recycling program. We provide curbside pick up and drop-off locations (schedule is shown below) in your neighborhood for all the items listed. These items directly support the Homeless Shelter on York Road and our Family Shelter in Gettysburg. Your involvement in our recycling program helps us to provide homeless shelters, meals, job training, and counseling. All we ask is that you donate recyclable items that you may now be putting in the trash. On behalf of the homeless we "thank you" for any financial donations and for recyclable items, which we will pick up as a free service to you. We are grateful for your support!
