The Blind Center of Nevada, one of Nevada's oldest charities, is participating in the 9th Annual Living Green Super Recycle event at the Thomas and Mack Center February 1st, 2020, from 8:00AM - 2:00PM.
We are looking for 30 - 40 people to help unload electronic items from cars donated by residents of Las Vegas. Items include computers, cell phones, tablets, printers, monitors and just about anything else that plugs into an outlet. All donated electronics will provide money and jobs for programs and services for people who are blind or visually impaired in Las Vegas.
Come out and help us and have some fun! Pizza and water provided on-site from our Channel 8 friends. If you have questions please call Todd Imholte at 702-755-0444 or email todd@blindcenter.org.

About Blind Center of Nevada

Mission Statement
The Blind Center of Nevada is dedicated to assisting people who are blind or visually impaired in reaching their highest physical, social, intellectual and economic potential, through personal development, social interaction and meaningful employment. We're committed to providing a personal path to hope, independence and the pursuit of greatness for each of our members.
Description
The Blind Center of Nevada is the only full-service day center in Nevada for those of our community who've lost their sight.
Finding Hope: Life doesn’t stop at blindness, but for many, the hopelessness runs deep. We uplift people by providing emotional rescue, a caring shelter, a welcoming community and counseling to help members see beyond their visual impairment. Through the Blind Center of Nevada, people find a loving, social refuge-a place that understands, and truly cares.
Learning Independence: Within our encouraging family environment, we help members see beyond their visual limits and learn to live an independent life. Our skills training, educational resources and ongoing assistance all work together to ignite a can-do-spirit that defies boundaries and fuels personal growth.
Pursuing Greatness: Best of all, our center helps members visualize their true potential and work toward achieving great things. Through a wide range of programs-including music, art, fitness, education, and vocational mentorship-we help people reach goals they can be proud of. Greatness isn’t limited to those with sight. We help members achieve great things while living lives that are unbound-and unlimited.
