July 2005 Community Crusade - The ReUse PeopleThis July, KUSF's Community Crusade salutes the good work of The ReUse People. The ReUse People is a Bay Area non-profit dedicated to keeping usable building materials out of our landfills and providing them to people who can reuse them.
The ReUse People offers building owners, architects, contractors and others a package of green services, including environmentally sound demolition, materials salvage, and reuse and recycling consulting. Their work extends the life of existing landfills, benefits low income families who can't afford to buy new materials, and helps building owners donate materials.
Over the last 10 years, the work of the ReUse People has helped divert more than 200,000 tons of usable building materials away from our landfills and given them new life.
To find out more about the services offered by The ReUse People, or for volunteer opportunities, contact The ReUse People toll free at 888-588-9490 or visit them online at www.thereusepeople.org.
July 2005 Community Crusade - Golden Gate CouncilThis July, KUSF's Community Crusade highlights the work of the Golden Gate Council.
Founded in 1958, Golden Gate Council is a non-profit network of 10 affordable accommodations providing top-quality service, cleanliness and security to guests in San Francisco, Sacramento and other scenic Northern California locations. Hostelling began in 1909 to help young people of limited means experience the countryside and cities of the world. Hostels are now at the heart of international tourism for a wide age group.
The mission of Golden Gate Council is to help travelers, especially the young, gain a greater understanding of the world and its people through hostelling. Their vision is for guests to become caring global citizens who are catalysts for intercultural exchange and understanding stewards of the earth.
Golden Gate Council has a central services office in San Francisco which provides support to the 10 hostels in Northern California. The Council was formed by volunteers and has many opportunities for people who want to lend their time. For more information call 415-863-1444 or visit www.norcalhostels.org.
