Knights Of Columbus Fundraises Through Paper Recycling - December 2006
   Members of the Knights of Columbus Mary Star of the Sea, Council 4752 have begun a new fundraising program through paper recycling. The Knights have obtained a bright green and yellow container called "Abitibi Paper Retriever" from Abitibi Consolidated Recycling Division. The container is highly visible and easily accessible in the Knights of Columbus parking lot at 1841 Whitehaven Road.
   The local K of C is looking for continuous fundraising support from the community, particularly from its Whitehaven Road neighbors. Recycling reduces landfill space and reduces air emissions and wastewater. More importantly, it provides revenue that can be used to help people in the Grand Island community.
   Acceptable paper items include newspapers, magazines, shopping catalogs, office paper, junk mail, and shredded paper (in clear plastic bags). Items not acceptable include corrugated cardboard, telephone books, and cardboard from food cartons of any kind, plastic, glass, and metallic materials.
   According to Knight Joe Diebold, there has been outstanding support since the fundraising program began in November 2006. The Knights appreciate and thank those who have already dropped off recyclable paper items.
   For further information about the program, call Program Chairman Peter Kuszczak, 773-6459; Grand Knight Joseph Gramza, 635-9033; or Mr. Diebold, 432-2951.
