The International Erosion Control Association and the America's Schools Program have teamed up to help preserve the environment and fund educational programs by recycling printer cartridges and cell phones. 50% of all proceeds go to support IECA and its membership. The other 50% goes to the America's Schools Program to support K-12 schools across the country.
This program is in partnership with and under the auspicies of the State School Boards Associations throughout the country.
