Support the Reedy Creek Nature Center

There are several ways that you can help support the Reedy Creek Nature Center and Go Green in the process!

 

Recycle old cell phones/ink jet cartridges

One cell phone can pollute up to 132,000 liters of drinking water.  Stop by one of our drop-off locations* and donate any old cell phones and ink jet cartridges you might have.  The nature center will receive money for each phone/ink jet cartridge donated, so not only are you supporting the nature center, but you are also helping to protect the environment!

Drop-off locations:

  • Reedy Creek Nature Center
    2900 Rocky River Rd, Charlotte, NC 28215
  • Park and Rec Administrative Office Building
    5841 Brookshire Blvd, Charlotte, NC 28216
