Dump and Donate: e-waste collection drive launched

Lions Clubs International launched its ‘Dump Donate’ — an electronic waste collection drive recently at Coimbatore Industrial Infrastructure Association (COINDIA) here. In the drive, public can donate electronic items they no longer use, according to a press release. The items will either be recycled or refurbished safely and a sapling will be planted in lieu of their donation. As a part of the drive, school and college students and volunteers have been requested to implement the project in their areas as well, the release said.
