When we collect beverage containers from Sunnyvale businesses, they are transported to the Sunnyvale SMaRT Station, where they are recycled. ♻️

Over the past year, corpsmembers have been hard at work helping revitalize Guadalupe River Park alongside many community partners. 🤝 From clearing overgrown brush, vegetation management, soil restoration, and sheet mulching to support a healthier habitat, corpsmembers have played an important role in bringing the park back to life. 💚

This ongoing effort marks Phase One of a larger vision to restore and continue improving Guadalupe River Park for the community, and we're just getting started. Hope to see you out there! 🥳

Last week, we hosted our Spring Futures Fair! 🌼 🎉 Corpsmembers spent the day exploring career pathways, community resources, and educational opportunities while connecting with organizations across the community. 🤝

Events like these help open doors, build connections, and introduce corpsmembers to potential pathways for their future. ✨

Thank you to all the organizations that took the time to connect, share resources and opportunities, and inspire corpsmembers. 💚 Can't wait for the next one! 💼

This winter, we worked with Grassroots Ecology and other volunteers to plant 400 native habitat plants at their Alviso site (which is home to a sensitive population of burrowing owls).🦉

Not only does it look great, but the plants help create a habitat for the burrowing owls' prey, giving these special birds a better chance to survive here in the bay. 💚
