My Project

I’m requesting your support to bring triple recycling bins—featuring separate sections for trash, recyclables, and compost—into our classroom. This simple tool will help students learn how to responsibly sort waste while building lifelong habits of sustainability and care for our planet.

By using the bin daily, students will see the impact of their choices, better understand climate and environmental issues, and will also spark discussions about how small actions contribute to a healthier Earth.

This hands-on experience turns environmental science into something real and actionable. With your help, we can create a cleaner classroom and a more conscious generation of Earth stewards. Thank you for supporting our students and their learning!
