A hearty THANK YOU to all of the citizens who brought their EWaste to our Weird Waste Day on November 10th! We diverted over $12,000 pounds of electronic waste from landfills and developing nations by responsibly recycling with EForce Compliance. We would also like to thank the volunteers that helped us direct traffic and to Norwood Fontbonne Academy for use of their parking lot. We collected over $2,000 in donations that will fund GRinCH's Green Warrior Student grant pilot program which will be rolled out in January.
Welcome to the new Chestnut Hill Green Space.
Green in Chestnut Hill, aka GRINCH, is a new group interested in furthering sustainable practices in the beautiful Chestnut Hill area of Philadelphia. We are hoping that this will become a forum for all things green happening in our area and also, to join forces, share information and promote our efforts.
