Nominations are now being accepted for Urban Impact’s 2009 charity program. Urban Impact is looking for 10-20 Lower Mainland charities to join this very successful program that has provided more than 70 charities with free recycling and office paper shredding services since the program began in 2003.
About the Urban Impact Charity Program
Each year Urban Impact commits 1% of annual pre-tax profit to assist Lower Mainland charities by providing free recycling services as an in-kind contribution. This helps charities reduce waste disposal and lower their operating expenses, allowing them to reduce administration costs and allocate more funds directly towards charitable efforts.
