CARY, NC, May 17, 2012

Betsy Dassau, president of Cary Creative Center, Inc., has announced that the local nonprofit recently received a large donation of scrap materials from The Green Kangaroo, Inc., a stationery company. In an effort to keep the material out of landfills, Kristen Klett, owner of the company, donated the excess materials, which totaled more than 3 tons, to the reuse center. The reuse center was modeled after several other successful scrap centers and focuses on saving material from the landfill.

QUOTES:
"We at C₃ were overwhelmed with Kristen's generosity and commitment to reuse. We received approximately 3 tons of fancy papers and a variety of materials, including much needed shelving, storage and display fixtures," said Dassau. "We look forward to maintaining a very valuable partnership with The Green Kangaroo, Inc., that will benefit both businesses and enhance our commitment to environmental awareness and creative expression."

"We have been contemplating what to do with our valuable scraps for many years. Despite our best efforts to put them to good use, we still generate quite a bit of overflow," said Klett. "We could not have found a more inspiring or worthy partner than The Cary Creative Center. This group is an ideal recipient for material donations from The Green Kangaroo. We are looking forward to a lasting relationship with the center."
