<p>We wanted to share some good news - our iYERP metal recycling partnership generated over <strong>$85,000 for Idaho youth</strong> in 2011!! This is a <strong>68%</strong> increase over the previous year ($50,000), and a ridiculous-percent increase compared to the returns in 2007 ($7,600), 2008 ($11,400), and 2009 ($20,938).</p>
<p> The $85,000 generated will be coupled with personal and corporate grants/donations, putting together our greatest grant giving year ever. We&#8217;ll be in touch again soon with the announcement of grant totals and grant recipients for 2012.</p>
<p> Happy New Year &amp; Happy Scrapping!</p>
