Helping Shrewsbury Go GREEN! The Dumpster Divers “your eco-friendly trash team”

Jackie Fashjian became very passionate about spreading awareness to future generations on this very serious environmental issue.  She began working with a company called Terracycle.  Terracycle creates new products from non-recyclable trash that would otherwise end up in the landfills.  They resell these innovative products to major retailers like Wal-Mart, K-Mart and Home Depot just to name a few.  The best part about this program is Terracycle donates 2 cents to a school or charity for every piece of trash sent in.  So far The Dumpster Divers have diverted thousands of pieces of trash from the landfills and raised well over $100 for Floral Street School.  They have also opened a new account to raise $$ for a local Girl Scout troop.  Their hope in the future is to spread this program throughout Central MA and raise a lot more money for local schools and other non profit charities.
