ORGANIZATION: MORGAN DUKE CONSERVATION SOCIETY

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.

Let’s Hear it for CHANGE! Morgan Duke Conservation Society Is hosting a virtual bottle drive and you can help! We are using CLYNK To Give to collect empty bottles and cans to support our work in the community.

  • Take a green CLYNK bag home
  • Fill it with your empty, redeemable bottles and cans (no sorting required!)
  • Return the tagged bag to the CLYNK drop location at your local Hannaford.
Our volunteers will be starting to work at Colgate Lake Wild Forest this spring to pick up litter along the trails.

What is CLYNK?

CLYNK is an innovative "drop and go" bottle and can redemption service that allows customers to accumulate a balance in a personal account or donate funds to an organization. Customers simply fill their green CLYNK bag, tag it and drop it off at their local Hannaford. CLYNK to Give is a fundraising tool that helps organizations run a year-round bottle and drive with minimal effort.

What can go in a CLYNK Bag?

Any plastic, aluminum, or glass beverage container--regardless of retailer--on which a deposit was paid during purchase (often denoted with a 5₵ or 15₵ insignia) is eligible to be redeemed with CLYNK. The container must be redeemed in the same state in which the deposit was paid in order to receive redemption value. In other words, CLYNK bags filled with containers purchased in Maine must be redeemed in Maine, and containers purchased in New York must be redeemed in New York in order to receive redemption value.

Although you will not receive redemption value, CLYNK will recycle any non-eligible containers that make it into your CLYNK bag so long as they are sturdy plastic, aluminum, or glass beverage containers that resemble those covered by the bottle bill. To see a full list of eligible containers in your state’s bottle bill, please visit http://www.bottlebill.org/

Where do I take the bag once it is filled?

CLYNK bags can be dropped at any Hannaford Supermarket location that has a CLYNK drop center. This includes 46 locations in New York. For a complete list visit: https://www.clynk.com/locations/

How do you drop a CLYNK bag?

Bring your securely tied CLYNK bag(s) to the bottle deposit area (or outside drop box) at your local Hannaford and look for the CLYNK drop door. There will be a hand-held scanner by the drop door or underneath each window on the box. Scan EACH bag tag on your CLYNK bag and simply place the bag through the door. You’re done! Within two business days the funds will be deposited into the organization’s account.

Mission Statement

Morgan Duke Conservation Society is committed to aiding and supporting numerous conservation projects in the Adirondack Mountains and other places. There are multiple types of projects that we typically involve ourselves in, but all of them come together to support the larger role of conservation. Many of these projects are carried out in the same Hudson River Recreation Area that first gave James Sullivan the vision for the Morgan Duke Conservation Society. Specifically, some of the projects we work on are: Reforestation, and other replanting projects to replace vegetation harmed by human footfalls; Providing duck nest boxes and other types of birdhouses; Conducting beach cleanups on the sand dunes, shorelines and on the trails in the forests.

Description

These natural areas have existed for generations, but their continued health is in our hands. Whether we want it or not, it is our responsibility. And failing to fulfill that responsibility will mean a loss of these beautiful areas for our children and grandchildren.

While the natural areas we work on might be called recreation areas, the reality is they are natural areas that serve as the home to many different species. Our health and well being depends on this local ecology staying healthy. While we have the power to determine the fate of these natural areas, we don’t have the power to avoid the consequences if we fail to act.
