We always love connecting with the future of the planet! Today we visited a local school group who took part in our collaborative collection project. These recyclables will go on to be sorted, shredded and given new life once again as a variety of products including building materials, furniture, planters, jewelry and more!🛟♻️🔃

A huge thanks to these little legends for participating!💖

“If not you, who? If not now, when?”

This powerful phrase from Talmudic texts urges others to take action rather than waiting for someone else to act——even if that looks like cleaning up others’ spilled trash.🌎🫶🏾

Summer is coming… don’t forget that sacred principle that if you pack it in; pack it out!🫶🏾
