SCHOOL FUNDRAISING

Help local schools raise funds by joining in on their paper recycling efforts.

Xenia High School is participating in a way to promote environmental awareness and raise funds at the same time.  The students and faculty of Xenia High School have teamed up with Abitibi-Consolidated Recycling Division to bring you an exciting program called Abitibi Paper Retriever® Program.

Anyone in the community can go to Xenia High School and easily be part of this unique recycling program.  The Abitibi Paper Retriever® bin is located at Xenia High School, 303 Kinsey Road, Xenia, Ohio and is available 24 hours a day. 

Paper suitable for recycling through the Abitibi Paper Retriever® program includes all clean and dry:

	Newspapers
	Magazines
	Shopping Catalogs
	Office and School Papers
	Mail

On a regularly scheduled basis, the Abitibi Paper Retriever® bin will be emptied and after collecting the minimum amount of paper per month, Xenia High School will earn revenue from the contents of the bin.  The paper is taken to Abitibi-Consolidated Recycling processing center, where it is sorted.  The paper is then sent to one of Abitibi-Consolidated’s de-inking facilities in the United States, where it will be turned into marketable paper products such as newsprint.

Everyone in the community is encouraged to participate in this innovative program to recycle paper products.  Local involvement can help save landfill space, clean up the environment and earn money for their neighborhood school by taking recyclable paper to the school’s Abitibi Paper Retriever® bin.
