Memorial Library is eligible for the GE Foundation’s “More Gifts, More Givers”
program, approved gifts from GE employees and retirees will be matched on a
dollar-for-dollar basis, effectively doubling your gift to McCord! To approve
your gift, please call the toll free GE Foundation Customer Service Center at:

Verizon and other employers also match donations, so please ask your

Donate Empty Inkjets to Help McCord
Recycle Inkjet · Reduce Pollution · Raise Funds
What to do:
1. Most of us have inkjet printers at home or work. Next time when you have an empty cartridge, don’t throw it away.
2. Just put it in a Ziploc bag or the original cartridge box and bring it to McCord Memorial Library, 32 West Main S
t. North East, PA
3. We have a special recycle box at the front desk.
Benefits to the library:
The library will be paid up to $4.00 for each cartridge with a print head.
Prompt cash payment for our library when a filled box is sent.
McCord patrons have already raised over $350 for the library!
Benefits to our community:
Reduce pollution. Cartridges do not decompose for 1,000 years.
Save energy. Empty ones can be remanufactured and reused.
No buying, no selling, no burden to anyone.
Which cartridges:
Cartridges with a print head are qualified for payment. That includes most of Hewlett Packard, Lexmark, Compaq, Canon, Dell, Brother, and Apple.
Cartridges without a print head do not qualify for payment. That includes all Epson.
If you cannot tell the difference, bring it in anyways.
Everybody helps. We can make a difference.
You can also get empties from friends, neighbors, and small businesses.
On average, a person uses 2 cartridges a year.
The potential is huge.
