NILES, IL, April 05, 2017 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Garvey's Office Products is teaming up with Chicago-based organization The Night Ministry to turn recyclables into help for the homeless community in Chicagoland. Both companies are asking Chicago businesses to donate any used toners, flattened cardboard and old electronics they have on hand to Garvey's Office Products' Recycle for a Reason program.
Through Garvey's Office Products' Recycle for a Reason program, these items will then be recycled into monetary donations. These donations will be received by The Night Ministry to provide for those in the Chicago community who are struggling with homelessness or poverty. The Night Ministry accomplishes this through a number of efforts, including a mobile health van, youth outreach and street medicine teams, an emergency shelter and interim housing and transitional living programs.
"The Night Ministry is grateful for the support it receives from businesses like Garvey's Office Products," said Paul W. Hamann, The Night Ministry's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Critical donations through programs like Recycle for a Reason enable us to continue providing essential housing, healthcare and human connection to individuals throughout Chicagoland."
To donate, drop off applicable recyclables to 7500 N. Caldwell Ave, Niles, IL Monday -Friday in between the working hours of 9-5 PM. If you are a Garvey's Office Products' customer, you can have your donations picked up free of charge by your Nice Guy driver. Call 800-621-1503 or email [email protected] to learn more.
Recyclable donations for The Night Ministry will be collected until June 30, 2017. Both Garvey's Office Products and The Night Ministry stand by the idea that together, we can make a difference - a difference that starts by Chicago businesses recycling for change.
