Ahoy mates! Urban Impact's Zero Waste Stations were on deck August 11 and 12 at the City of Richmond's Maritime Festival. Besides the bounty of beautiful wooden boats, highlights of the Maritime Festival included food from many cultures, animated storytelling, puppet-making, facepainting, gorgeous wooden boats, and great music. We are love to see our Zero Waste stations in use at such a colourful, fun community event.
We are pleased to announce that Urban Impact will donate the proceeds from our next two Shred Days to the Philippine Red Cross to support the people of Manila who have been affected by the typhoon.
