NFRA sends tremendous thanks to those who come out to our Can Sorts! You make it fast and fun. If you’d like to join us, please contact us at nfraevents@gmail.com or send us a message through Facebook.

A huge thank you to all residents who donate their pop & beer cans, liquor bottles, etc. to NFRA at our two landfill locations. Your generosity is inspiring and allows us to support NES in no small way!

You can do your part to the sort when you donate. Please ensure that you aren’t including plastics, glass, paper and household garbage in our collection bins.

So far in 2024 our can sorts and metal sales have exceeded $9000.00 in revenue. That’s a lot of cans and scrap metal that has stayed out of our landfills!

Alone, we can do so little; together, we can do so much” – Helen Keller. NFRA has now contributed with your help over $480,000 towards equipment for NES since 2002. Find the full list of purchases on our website.
