“Reclaiming Resources… Restoring Lives”

“By the end of the decade billions of computers and electronic waste will have to be recycled. In simple terms, this is stuff people just don’t want. But if you look beyond what is unwanted and in disrepair, a keen eye can see value and purpose. Not unlike the homeless and economically challenged within our communities, one must look beyond their obvious plight and see that untapped trove of talent that can be discovered and realized. We continually seek innovative ways to create jobs and opportunities for at risk individuals who are willing to make a positive change in their lives, and the environment that we live in.”

Lane Jacobs, CEO

Urban Renewal Corp manages electronic waste, including discarded computers and monitors, laptops, printers and other consumer electronics. Electronic waste accounts for two percent (2%) of the municipal waste stream, but contributes over seventy percent (70%) of the toxins therein. At URTC, no waste is produced during the responsible management of used electronics. Products are de-manufactured and recycled, or refurbished for sale or donation to worthy causes worldwide. All proceeds from recycling and refurbishing are used to help fund the programs administered by URTC for the homeless and economically disadvantaged and citizens returning from incarceration.
