The Coburn United Methodist Church, Goodwill Industries, Inc.,
WHIZ and Barnes Advertising team up to GO GREEN!!!


WHAT: Community Recycling Event
WHEN: Saturday, June 12th, 9am-1pm
WHERE: Coburn United Methodist Church (Parking Lot)

Goodwill Industries, Inc. and Coburn United Methodist Church, with help from business sponsors WHIZ Media Group, and Barnes Advertising, have joined forces for a “Recycle Event” on Saturday, June 12, from 9:00 AM. to 1:00 PM. The event will take place at the Coburn United Methodist Church located at 3618  Maple Ave. (Across from Colony Square Mall) in Zanesville.  GO GREEN! gives everyone in the community an opportunity to recycle paper, cardboard, old computer equipment, small appliances, plastics, and metals, essentially saving them from landfills.  Workers and volunteers will be present to take recyclables in a “drive-thru” setting, so there will be no need to even leave the car!  We invite everyone in the community to drop by on Saturday, June 12, leave your recyclables and  GO GREEN!

As a ministry Go Green! is an effort to teach us to care for God’s creation!  It reminds us, that while we are a consumer society, that we have a responsibility to give back and be sure that our resources are not wasted, but rather continue in a stream of re-use that protects our environment, preserves our resources, and keeps our consumables out of the landfills.

Go Green! Is also an important partnership of community organizations and businesses to make our community a better place.  It is important that the church team with organizations like Goodwill and businesses to work together for community improvement and to build a better life.  The Coburn United Methodist Church and her partners take great pride in sharing in this important event that invites the whole community to build a better place for all.

Last year Go Green! collected over 6,548 pounds of aluminum, plastics, paper, corrugate, magazines, and metals from the community.  Besides saving these items from landfills, these items helped to provide job opportunities through Goodwill Industries as well as revenue for the work of Goodwill Industries in our community.

Go Green! is part of ongoing recycling efforts by both Goodwill Industries and the Coburn United Methodist Church.  Goodwill Industries provides recycling at its Maple Ave. location year round and the Coburn United Methodist Church provides for year round recycling of paper, aluminum and computer ink cartridges.
