Recycling to help Animal Charities 
You can collect certain things to help animal charities and rescue shelters, who then recycle them for money. The following list of items can be used to raise money for animal charities and rescues:

• Empty printer ink cartridges
• Old mobile cell phones
• Used stamps
• Left over foreign currency
• Old and broken gold jewellery
• Old padded envelopes can be useful for charities who fund raise online

Not all of the above items can be used to fund raise for every animal charity and rescue, it depends on which schemes they are taking part in. If you see ideas for fundraising which a rescue you know of  is not currently benefiting from, point them to this page.
