And that’s a wrap on our Can Fairy program for the 2023-2024 cycle! Swipe through to see how much we recycled this academic school year. 🧚♻️

The Can Fairy Curbside Recycling program asks participants to fill the box, not their lawn. Why? Because it helps the environment and beautifies the off campus area. Participants with the cleanest collection received a prize each week in their mailbox. Want to participate next year? You’re in luck — the Ohio EPA just awarded us a grant to continue AND expand our program! Anyone living between 11th Ave and Lane Ave can participate in the 2024-2025 cycle.

Sign up for 2024-2025 Can Fairy Curbside Recycling via the link in our bio!
