When I opened my campaign account on Friday I was asked if I wanted to order checks. My response: “No”. I am pretty sure that the checks obtained from my credit union are not recylced. Yesterday I ordered checks for my campaign treasury from Check Gallery, a company I have been using for years. Their checks are recycled. They have over 700 designs and many of the checks are for various organizations. I really like the NOW checks (National Organization of Women). They have several sets:
There are a number of other socially repsonsible organzations with this service.
After about an hour of trying to decide, I finally went with a “southwest art” design and an earth logo in the upper left corner.
At any rate, although I wanted green checks or checks with a sunflower logo (the Green Party symbol), my responsibility for having recycled checks outweighed the design I wanted.
Next I plan to make business cards out of recycled paper – preferrably old money paper.
