eTitle Hosts E-Clutter for Kids
Electronics Recycling Event April 21, 2012
Benefits Beaumont Children’s Hospital’s First Words Society
TROY, Michigan (March 19, 2012) – eTitle Agency, Inc. in Troy is proud to sponsor for the second year in a row,
the E-Clutter for Kids Drive to benefit Beaumont Children’s Hospital’s First Words Society on Saturday, April 21,
2012 from 8:00am-8:00pm.
E-Clutter for Kids is an electronics recycling fundraiser that allows you to donate electronic waste that will later
be re-purposed or recycled. Each donation will get a tax deduction receipt.
E-Clutter benefits the Beaumont Children’s Hospital’s First Words Society, a nonprofit organization providing
treatment for underserved children with speech and language disorders and affiliate of The Children’s Miracle
Network.
“Springtime is the perfect opportunity to clean out all of the unwanted electronic items we have at home or at
the office,” said eTitle President and CEO Linda Orlans, who is also a founding member and president of
Beaumont Children’s Hospital’s First Words Society. “With E-Clutter, you can get rid of those items while
protecting the environment and supporting the needs of local children.”
2011 was the first E-Clutter for Kids drive and we were able to raise more than $11,000 for the First Words
Society. Volunteers at drop-off locations across Metro Detroit filled 10 semi trucks, six dumpsters and helped
the environment by recycling more than 100,000 pounds of potentially toxic waste material that would have
ended up in landfills. Statewide Recycling and Recovery will once again dispose of the electronic waste.
Below is a list of items that will be accepted for recycling at eTitle and the other area drop off locations. For
more information or questions, and a list of other participating locations, contact Katie Groves, associate
director, Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals’ program at Beaumont, at 248-551-3609. You can also find
