*We initiated and participate in two community programs, both of which are carried out by Craig, an adult man with autism, which create meaningful work experiences and opportunities to contribution to his community.
Cans for a Cause Aluminum cans are saved by participants. Cans are collected weekly by Craig who then crushes them and delivers them to a recycling facility.
(Fun fact: Aluminum is an infinitely recyclable material, and it takes up to 95% less energy to recycle it than to produce primary aluminum, which also limits emissions, including greenhouse gases.)
DeClutter Concierge Community members gather items and clothing that they are no longer in need of. Items are collected by Craig and delivered to the charitable collection center of their choosing, taking the extra step out of decluttering!
