Fundraisers

"Cast A Coin into the River of Life!"

Coin jars are available on the table in the Sanctuary.  Take one home and toss your loose change into the jars and return them by June 11th.  The coins collected will help pay for some of our supplies/materials needed to start the mission event.

Cell Phone & Inkjet Cartridges

Winterville United Methodist Church has an ongoing cell phone and inkjet cartridge recycling fundraising drive to benefit the River of Life Program. There’s nothing to buy. We are simply asking everyone to safeguard the environment by donating their old digital cell phone(s) and used printer inkjet cartridges. The tax deductible cell phone and ink cartridge donation(s) will be recycled in accordance with EPA regulations or refurbished and sold.

100% of the proceeds will go towards defraying the cost of materials.  A receipt for tax deductible purposes will be provided for those who request one.  Please phone the church office (706-742-2445) or email the Fundraising Coordinator for a receipt.

 Qualifying phones and ink cartridges:

  • Only digital phones will be accepted (no walkie-talkies, two-way radios, pagers, PDA’s, cordless home phones, mock display units, analog phones, or “bag” phones).  No manuals or accessories will be accepted.  Damaged phones are OK.

 

  • Printer ink cartridges must not be damaged; I.e. cartridge case, circuitry and print head must not be broken.  Use zip lock bags to individually wrap each cartridge. No laser or toner cartridges.   (If the cartridge is larger than the palm of your hand it is not an ink jet cartridge.)

 

  • Big News! We can now accept the additional items for recycling:

    • laptop computers

    • MP3 players,

    • digital cameras, digital camcorders, digital frames,

    • GPS devices

    • Portable DVD players

    • Video game consoles (Sony Play stations, Xbox, Wii, Game Cube)

You may download a printable poster to attach to a box, which can be placed in your office or other place of employment, school, church, etc. for collecting cell phones and ink cartridges.  Once full, either deliver it to the office at Winterville UMC, or email the Coordinator to arrange for a DHL pickup.

If you have any other questions, please feel free to email.

Thank you,
JoAnn Snow
