Habitat for Humanity Northumberland hosted a very successful E-waste Event on March 31 and April 1.  Tons of electronics waste were collected to be safely  recycled and diverted away from landfill sites. Click here to see pictures from this event.  If you missed this opportunity to get rid of your old tvs, computers, radios, etc. additional e-waste events will be held on June 16 & 17 and September 15 & 16.  These 'drive thru' events are held at the ReStore at 45 Ewart St., Cobourg.  Thanks to all volunteers who have helped during our e-waste events. 


We have two more partners!
