Press release<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BATAVIA, NY \u2013 GLOW With Your Hands is partnering with AQS Redemption Inc. to
collect bottles and cans to help fund career exploration programs. The returns will go into a
workforce development fund at GLOW Works, Inc. and be available for use toward future
workforce programming in Genesee, Livingston, Orleans, and Wyoming counties.
\u201cGLOW Works, Inc. was created to help fund programs for workforce training and development
for the future workforce in the GLOW region, including the annual GLOW With Your Hands
event (to be held next on September 27th at the Genesee County Fairgrounds),\u201d said Jay
Lazarony, GLOW With Your Hands Co-Chair. \u201cOn behalf of the GLOW With Your Hands
committee, we appreciate AQS Redemption Inc. for its participation and support of this
initiative and encourage the community to consider supporting this effort to benefit our
youth.\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AQS Redemption Inc., is a NYS Bottle and Can Redemption Company that will be coordinating
the collections. Residents can schedule complimentary pick-ups or drop off their redeemable
bottles and cans at the company\u2019s location at 1 North Main Street in Elba, NY. Businesses can
also host a bottle and can drive at their workplace. Residents and businesses can call at 585-
250-0870 or email aqsredemption@gmail.com to find out more information.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is all about investing and participating in the success of our area youth and their future
career aspirations,\u201d said Quinn Schrader, CEO, AQS Redemption Inc. \u201cIt\u2019s a great way for our
company to support the future workforce needs of businesses across our region.\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To kickoff Cans for Careers, a special donation station will be setup at the Batavia Downtown
Business Improvement District’s First Annual Box Car Derby on August 27th starting at 9:30 AM.
Local youth ages 7-13 years old built their own box cars and will race them down Ellicott
Avenue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhat better way to kick off this program than at the first annual box car derby where area
youth will display their ingenuity and skills in designing and racing their own custom-made box
cars,\u201d said Chris Suozzi, GLOW With Your Hands co-chair. \u201cThat\u2019s what GLOW With Your Hands
is all about and more importantly matching the skills of our youth with the needs of companies
and businesses looking for the next generation of their workforce.\u201d
