We turn into cash.....
Keeping true to the spirit of Alchemy, we will trade dollars earned from the aluminum which will go toward supporting programs that serve those suffering from addiction. Donations are being collected and the next recipient has not yet been determined. With all the changes in the world of addiction treatment, we are observing and contemplating how to help in the future. In the interim, donations of aluminum are encouraged and accepted at Colorado Iron and Metal in Fort Collins, Colorado to benefit The Aluminum Alchemist. Once we begin to collect more funds, we will offer limited scholarships for others in this alternative realm of healing through plant medicine and more traditional programs. |
...To Help Others
We're coming together as a community to help heal those who suffer from the epidemic of addiction by donating aluminum cans while The Aluminum Alchemist™ transforms them to GOLD (money). Through collaborative efforts with our communities we will support programs committed to healing those who struggle from addiction, both physically and spiritually, so that they can find purpose and joy in life again. |
Local mom creates aluminum can fundraiser for addiction recovery
MARCH 14, 2021 BY NATALIE WEILAND full article here.
To turn the aluminum cans into funds, Mitchell donates to Colorado Iron & Metal, a recycling plant in Fort Collins that compensates donors for each can they turn in. Mitchell then places the money earned into a checking account and donates the sum to an addiction recovery-related cause.
Mitchell plans to donate the funds she raises through the rest of this year to Garcia House, a recovery center in Fort Collins by SummitStone Health Partners. Prior to Garcia House, Mitchell has helped friends pay their rehab fees with the funds raised by her recycling efforts.
Millie Mitchell, founder of The Aluminum Alchemist, delivers her load of aluminum cans at the recycling center Feb. 8. Six years ago, the project was started in hopes that the community would recognize “there is a way to change our ongoing problem with substance abuse,” Mitchell said. (Tri Duong | The Collegian)
