earn & learn recycling program
It is now even easier to reduce your carbon footprint, protect our beautiful islands AND raise money for your school! New City & County HI5 recycling bins are now available for Hawaii Schools to use for recycling drives. HI5 bins are a great tool to raise funds for your school and help educate the public on how easy and beneficial it is to recycle.
Your school can earn an additional $1000.00!!!
The Lex Brodie’s Tire Company Foundation will make a matching donation of up to $1,000.00 to the Oahu school that raises the most money from a HI5 recycling drive held between September 1, 2008 and March 15, 2009. The second place school will receive a $500.00 matching donation.
Winners will be announced April 1, 2009 at the kick off of Earth Month.
