There are a number of organizations that are successfully using this fund raiser to bring in hundreds of dollars. Join them and start raising money for your favorite cause right now. Collecting these cartridges will also keep them out of the landfills - as you can imagine, ink left in plastic containers is not very environmentally friendly. Also some people are making money for themselves by collecting empty inkjet cartridges from the company they work for.
Large companies have hundreds of empty cartridges to dispose of each month.
This is not like selling cookies, candy or some other product that often the contributor does not really want. Collecting used cartridges is doing everyone a favor. We all win - the contributor gives up something of no value to him or her, saves on the environment, brings in money for a good cause and helps us with our business. There are a number of ways this can be set up. Let me focus on one that will work for most any organization - you can improvise as necessary.
