Ten tons of rolling reuse.

Have you seen a giant, box truck-shaped Home ReSource billboard cruising around town lately? That’s because our Material Donation Acquisitions Specialist, John Powers, is back in action after taking some time to rehab a new knee. Welcome back, John! And while he was away we spruced up his “office” by wrapping the 26-foot reuse mobile with new graphics. Give John a ring at 880-5555 if you want him to pick up your tax-deductible material donation.

Speaking of cruising and new things, everyone’s cruising may soon become limited when construction crews begin building a new bridge and a new bike/ped underpass on Russell St. The heavy duty construction work is slated to begin April 15th, and we are assured that two lanes of traffic will be open throughout the process. Learn more at the Montana DOT Russell St Project Open House on Monday, March 19 from 3-7 p.m. at the Salvation Army, 355 South Russell.

Got a hunger to learn about food waste and how to reduce it? Check out the screening of “WASTED! The Story of Food Waste” at The Roxy also on Monday, March 19, but at 6:30 p.m. The event is hosted by the Montana Student Chapter of the Air & Waste Management Association. After the film Jeremy Drake, Home ReSource’s Community Engagement Manager, will help further sate your appetite when he joins Jessica Allred from the Missoula Food Bank and Amy Hutton from the Western Ag Research Center for a panel discussion.
