Recycled Materials for Schools

In 2004, RRIE worked with teachers, child-care providers and other organizations to provide 56,000 children in Rhode Island with 240,000 pounds of recycled material. Support from the RI Resource Recovery Corporation has been essential for the organization to maintain its existence and deliver these services.
