NEW YORK—In a continuing effort to go “green,” Rose Brand will be earning money to be donated to The ESTA Foundation’s Behind the Scenes charity by collecting empty printer cartridges and used cell phones and recycling them for cash credit at Funding Factory. The fundraiser continues Rose Brand’s support of Behind the Scenes and the company’s commitment to the environment. “We have a long term relationship with the entertainment industry and the hard-working people who make it all happen,” said Rose Brand’s Sales Director Josh Jacobstein. “With our recycling efforts we will create a benefit to Behind the Scenes and that’s a perfect way of continuing our ongoing support of the industry and people we work with.”
All laser and inkjet cartridges and cell phones collected through this effort are sent to Funding Factory, a company based in Erie, Pa., offering nationwide free recycling. Items are inspected and the value for each collected item in Rose Brand’s account is then sent to The ESTA Foundation’s Behind the Scenes program.
Deborah Sperry continued, “Rose Brand is on a journey to find the types of eco-friendly behaviors and activities that are genuine and sustainable. As the coordinator for Rose Brand’s green journey I am pleased that our recycling of used toner cartridges and cell phones will result in a contribution to Behind The Scenes and our green goals.”
Behind the Scenes is an initiative of The ESTA Foundation to provide industry members with financial support when they are seriously ill or injured. For more information about Behind the Scenes, to donate, or to apply for a grant, visit www.estafoundation.org/bts.htm.
