County Treasurer Find Treasures at Event

San Diego County Treasurer, Dan McAllister, joined SSE executive director Sue Prelozni, at the first-ever BYOB for Lab Supplies event.  "I just love what you are doing," McAllister told Prelozni.  "It just makes sense, environmentally while financially benefiting so many local organizations."
More than $60,000 of lab supplies were repurposed to local science teachers, researchers and start-up biotech companies.  Thousands of pipettes, culture plates, petri dishes, glassware, and more, were redistributed from local pharmaceutical and biotech companies.
"We are grateful that they chose donation over disposal," said Prelozni.
