Did You Know??
The bread tags you are putting into the Recycling Bay in our foyer are being made into seedling trays. The proceeds are used to provide wheelchairs for the needy in South Africa. “ Bread Tags for Wheelchairs” has been running in South Africa since 2006. At present about 500kg of bread tags are collected per month in South Africa, funding 2-3 wheelchairs.
The plastic bottle tops from milk and fruit juice can be recycled also. We will drop them off at Encompass Community Services. They are then taken to Envision Hands who create bespoke aids out of the bottle caps with 3D printers, which are then donated to children in need.
