Angela on Local 24 Memphis South Main Recycles - Copeland Coaching

Angela on Local 24 Memphis South Main Recycles Thank you to Sean Parker, and Local 24 for a great story today about South Main Recycles!   In addition to my career coaching practice, I volunteer my time for a few causes Im passionate about.   One is recycling. My neighborhood in Downtown Memphis lost its recycling bins last year after our grant funded by the Office of Sustainability ran out.   Thats when myself and two of my neighbors, Bob Lundy and Sharon Leicham, decided to do something. A visit to single stream recycling facility ReCommunity and a few phone calls later, we found that adding recycling back into the neighborhood was just $100 per month for everyone. We started an online campaign to accept donations from other neighbors. We were able to raise over $1,200 from donations as small as $5 and as large as $100.   Then, the Downtown Memphis Commission generously matched what we raised! Recycling is back.   If youd like to use the single stream bins, theyre located next to the Memphis Farmers Market at G.E. Patterson and Tennessee Street.   If youd like to learn more, or to donate, visit Facebook.com/SouthMainRecycles. Watch the interview below:
