The Problem
We will be hosting an Eco Fair on April 22nd, 2017 at which we will be offering paper shredding with Shred Nation, electronics recycling with Goodwill, paint recycling with Green Sheen, and specific Terracycle Brigade recycling. We will be a drop off site for ARC donations. We will be asking for donations for shredding and paint recycling to offset the cost of the shredding service. We hope to grow this event with community wide support to reduce, reuse, and recycle our waste. After repaying the PTO for Shred Nation's service, we plan to donate some of our proceeds from our event back to the school in the form of beautifying our school garden by adding stepping stones, a bird bath, and native plant species. We are also interested in making birdhouses for the school. We are looking to apply for a Wildlife Habitat Certification from the National Wildlife Federation after we meet the criteria to do so.
