Volunteer Opportunity

Plans for the primary and general election Campaign Sign Collection Campaigns are in full swing. In conjunction with Orange County and the Cities of Orlando and Winter Park, the League of Women Voters of Orange County is ramping up to collect campaign signs when candidates are done with them. The plan is to collect the signs after both the primary and the general elections at locations around the county. Subsequently, the signs will be delivered to NuCycle Energy in Plant City for re-use as a clean(er) source of energy for the cement manufacturing industry.
