Frisco Native American Museum Recycling at the Museum Is Rewarding<br />
Looking for a way to clean out your closet and do something good for others at the same time? The<br />
Frisco Native American Museum & Natural History Center has a new project that can do just that! The<br />
museum has partnered with Community Recycling, a world-wide program that works with communities<br />
across the Untied States and more than fifty countries. The company seeks to recycle usable items to benefit<br />
individuals and communities, reduce the impact of refuse on landfills, and preserve the environment.<br />
“We’re excited about this opportunity,” said Carl Bornfriend, executive director for the museum.<br />
“Community Recycling will make a donation to the museum for each box of shoes that we collect, but<br />
more importantly, the program will make connections to see that the recycled shoes find new owners.<br />
Recycling, repurposing, and conserving are all meaningful issues in native cultures, and this program<br />
provides a way for everyone in the family to participate. From baby shoes to a teenager’s out grown<br />
sneakers and grand mom’s spike heels that are no longer comfortable, all are equally welcome. We’re<br />
pretty sure we’ve found a “Solemate” through this program” says Bornfriend with a smile.<br />
Recycling is a year round activity, but with spring cleaning coming up soon for many people,<br />
it’s a perfect time to clear closets and shoe racks. And donating couldn’t be easier. There are no special<br />
packaging or wrapping requirements. Simply drop your “gently used” shoes (no holes) in the collection<br />
box located at the museum.<br />
Staff will be more than happy to answer questions or assist with the donation.<br />
