"This new alliance will really expand our existing electronics recycling program and further Goodwill's mission at the same time," said Mike Rowan, CEO of Goodwill Industries of San Diego County in the release. "Working with Dell will help us ensure we are implementing the latest environmentally sound recycling practices."
