It is now even easier to reduce your carbon footprint, protect our beautiful islands AND raise money for your school! City & County HI5 recycling bins are available for Hawaii Schools to use for recycling drives. HI5 bins are a great tool to raise funds for your school and help educate the public on how easy and beneficial it is to recycle.
Your school can earn an additional $1000.00!!!
