America Recycles Day! November 15, 2010
Today is America Recycles Day. Join millions nationwide and recycle! New to recycling? It is never too late 
to start and today is a great day to do it!
What can you do to get started? Great question! How about these easy ideas:
America Recycles Day is sponsored by Keep America Beautiful, which is the nations largest volunteer based educational organization dedicated to encourage America to improve our community environments. "Recycling is the easiest thing that any individual can do to reduce his or her carbon footprint, save energy and protect natural resources," said Matthew M. McKenna, president & CEO of Keep America Beautiful, Inc. "While we celebrate the power of recycling on this special day, it's something we should all make a conscious effort to do every day of the year."
Waste Management in East County San Diego will be open to all of East County residents to drop off items like fluorescent light tubes, household batteries, e-waste, as well as all glass, plastic and aluminum. In addition to these recycling services, Waste Management will also be offering a shredding service for confidential paperwork. These recycling services will be available from 1 p,m. to 6 p.m. at theWaste Management Transfer and Processing Station located at 925 O'Conner Street (1001 West Bradley) in El Cajon.
Paying It Forward For Rady Children's Hospital
Every year about this time, one of San Diego's local DJ's lives in a bucket of a crane in the Ikea parking lot in Mission Valley. Ok, it is one of those crazy radio stunts that every city around the country has, but this one isn't just for ratings.
The goal each year is to collect toys for the kids at Rady Children's Hospital.This is San Diego's sole hospital dedicated exclusively for pediatric health care and the regions only designated pediatric trauma 
center. The mission for Rady Children's Hospitalis To restore, sustain and enhance the health and developmental potential of children through excellence in care, education, research and advocacy. Parents and children across the nation come for state of the art, high quality care. The goal of the hospital is to never turn a child in need away.
This year the goal was to collect 102,000 toys.Once this DJ reached this goal, he would come down from his home away from home. The collection of toys began on November 5, 2010 and exceeded the goal on November 12 at an amazing 106,000 toys!
I always hear about this event after it is over. It is not a radio station I listen to, so I only see the end result when it is on the news. This year it was different. A lady in our office sent out an email stating she would be donating $500 for the cause and was hoping to get a few more donations to help. She then told us what inspired her.
Her nephew who is 8 was recently diagnosed with a very rare form of Leukemia. The family is devastated and doing everything within their power to get their baby the care and treatment he needs. She went to visit him in the hospital in Denver where he is currently being treated and brought him a toy truck. The joy this little gift brought to him in the middle of this trauma was indescribable. She had been aching for days, but this gift was a gift for both of them.
Our office raised $2960! A few of the ladies went shopping for the toys at Big Lots and when the manager at Big Lots heard the story, gave them 20% off the entire purchase. Together EVERYONE was Paying it Forward for Rady Children's Hospital!
