Safeway provides healthy refreshments for Tech fun run


The Waikiki School Tech Fun Run Fundraiser to generate needed computers and electronic equipment took place on Friday, February 15th. Project Green Waikiki coordinated with Safeway Kapahulu to provide an organic, nutritious and waste-free snack for the runners. The children definately appreciated the refreshing juice, oranges and bananas after completing their fifteen minute run.

We are grateful to Safeway for not only providing the donated produce but for recognizing the importance of serving organic fruits and vegetables to our children.

Project Green was able to create a waste-free event. The compostable, biodegradable cups are currently composting outside the A Building along with the fruit peels. The juice bottles were recycled and the eight paper cartons are being reused in a 4th-grade art project.

Thanks to all the volunteers who generously shared their time serving refreshments to the kids.
