Send letters-- They make a difference!
Our letter page includes a list of current issues that need to be addresseed. You can take action on these issues in just a few minutes or write a letter of your own. If you have trouble writing letters or want to brief yourself on an issue, use our sample letters to help you get started or check our tips for effective letterwriting.

Send a copy of any letter you write to your State Representative and Senator and PPC. If you are a registered voter, make sure they know that. People power is our best resource in fighting this dump. Click here for the names and addresses of elected officials and agencies.

Donate what you can to the cause.
It takes time, effort, people power, and resources to fight big money. So far, most of our expenditures involve information gathering and getting the word out to the public. Most of this has been done with donations of materials and volunteer efforts. If you would like to join a committee or volunteer your skills, please contact us.

In addition, we foresee a need for lawyers, consultants, and expert witnesses in the near future to help stop this threat to our communities. We are fighting big money. Our most valuable asset is our voices (and we will use them), but it will take some money to fight big money. Please support the cause and donate today.

Please send your check/money order to PPC, PO Box 38, Clarence, PA 16829.

Pennsylvania Representative "Bud" George, long-time landfill opponent, has introduced a bill to stem the flow of out-of-state trash to Pennsylvania. Urge your state congressmen to support House Bill 508, which includes a moratorium on new landfills and landfill expansions.
