By teaming up with Emerge Community Development's other social enterprises — Second Chance Removal Services and Second Chance Recycling — we reduce, reuse, recycle every day of the year. ♻️

How? By turning commercial decommissioning into diverted landfill waste and funded workforce training across the Twin Cities.

Join us on October 22 for an open house to learn more about our work. We'll have drinks, bites, networking opportunities, and after-hours showroom shopping! It's free to attend.
