Recycle for Reading Program
Just One More Pound!
 Recycling
not only saves the planet but now can also help
raise up to $25,000 to benefit your local City of
Mesa Library through the Recycle for Reading
Program. For every additional pound of material
Mesa residents recycle over last year’s total*
between July 1, 2008, and June 30, 2009, a direct
contribution will be made to the library for the
purchase of new library material. Reaching this
goal is as easy as every Mesa household recycling
just one extra pound of material per week.
Here’s
how you can help:
1.Learn what is recyclable in Mesa’s
BLUE BARREL
PROGRAM.
2.Place all acceptable material in your blue
recycle barrel at home.
That’s all there is to it!

Hotline at (480) 644-2222.***UPCOMING EVENT!
