We have partnered with the Georgia Firefighters Burn Foundation (GFBF) to place trailers at the Hwy 37 and John Collins Waste Collection sites to collect aluminum cans. The GFBF has a program named REACH (Recycling Every Aluminum Can Helps). This program has been in existence for 36 years and has raised over $2,767,834 to assist fire departments with Fire Safety and Prevention educations and to support medical facilities and assist burn survivors in their recovery.
We are waiting on delivery of the trailers from the GFBF to begin the can collection. We will provide an update on this project soon.
