Andrew Frank is the the founder of the nonprofit, Space Cadet, in Reno, NV.  Every year large amounts of retail displays/fixtures are being sent to landfills.  Andrew has made it his mission to prevent this from happening.  His Nevada nonprofit, Space Cadet, helps companies repurpose their components responsibly and he is encouraging and offering to help others to do this as well all across the country.  This is critically important as many large retail companies are going out of business and these items could be utilized by local businesses that are in need.
