Eleven year-old Meg wants your end-of-the-school-year broken crayons for her recycled crayon business, Island Girl Recycled Crayons (IGRC).
This is the second year of her project. Last year IGRC created an opportunity for another local student to sell her products at the IGRC table at the holiday market, and giving both a creative entrepreneurial experience.
We want to continue the project, so please save your child’s unwanted, used crayons for Meg. Crayons do not break down in the landfill. Millions of crayons end up there each year. Help us give them another life. To donate contact Sandy, Meg’s mom and business partner at 378-8337 or write to sandy (at) Strehlou (dot) com.
You can support the San Juan Update by doing business with our loyal advertisers, and by making a one-time contribution or a recurring donation.
