A Can and Bottle Recycling Drive with monthly Jewish thematic promotion on our synagogue`s Facebook page and monthly bulletin.
We have an agreement with a local can and bottle recycling center. They accept cans and bottles from our congregants who identify that they want the money from their cans and bottles donated to Nanuet Hebrew Center Men`s Club. We promote this at every Men`s Club meeting and this past September we started updating our usual advertisement to be theme based with upcoming Jewish Holidays (depending on the time of year). We use information from the internet to find a Jewish article that connects with the current holiday with recycling. The recycling center mails us a check monthly. We typically receive between 5 and 25 dollars a month. To date we have collected over $200 for our club.
