I thought this was an interesting idea. Yes, it requires a little effort, but it could be a great project for a scout troop, a school or church youth group, even a senior citizen facility! Click the image for more information from their website.
In summary, here's the scoop: Matthew 25: Ministries accepts donations of empty plastic pill bottles for inclusion in shipments of medical supplies and for shredding and recycling. Our pill bottle program fulfills the dual needs of improving medical care in developing countries and caring for our environment.
Pill bottles that are not appropriate to include with shipments of medical supplies are recycled for cash that goes towards Matthew 25: Ministries’ programs.

Ask the Organizer!
Q: If I invest money in hiring you, can you guarantee my house won't just go back to the "way it was" eventually?
A: In a word, no, I cannot guarantee that. It all depends on whether you change old habits and maintain the systems we set up with you based on your personal organizing needs and goals.
Many clients check in to report that years later they're still happy with the changes we helped facilitate to create a space they love. Some clients call to say they need a "tweaking" session now and then, while others might experience a complete backsliding into the old habits. No worries, no shame, no judgement...we can help get them back on track.
Submit your questions to me via email: jamie@homesolutionswny.com with "Ask the Organizer" in the subject line. I'll choose one reader's question to feature in each newsletter.
