About This Cause
Good News Project is a 38-year-old nonprofit organization with a vision of caring for the environment and each other, through the three different programs. As a DNR registered and compliant collector, Good News Project’s E-Cycling Program provides a resource in Central Wisconsin to help keep electronic waste out of landfills by collecting and safely recycling outdated electronics. Valuable resources are reused, toxins are kept out of our air and water supplies, and nothing ends up in the landfill. During 2020, our E-Cycle collection program was acknowledged by the Wisconsin DNR with an electronics collection Excellence Award. Through the Health Equipment Lending Program (HELP), Good News Project provides the connection between those who have used medical equipment to donate, and those who need to borrow equipment for short-term use. Volunteers assess the equipment condition, repair if possible, or scrap parts for recycling. Those in workable condition are sent through a sanitizing machine and absorbed into the inventory of equipment, ready for lending to clients. HELP was mentioned in the Harvard Health Letter March 2020 as being an accessible and user-friendly resource for people with durable medical equipment needs. Good News Project facilitates international trips for volunteers with a heart for service. These trips, to some of the most lush islands in the West Indies, focus on providing housing, education for sustainable living and companionship for the poor.
