Volunteer Event: Recycling Center Cleanup -- We Need You!

Many of you may know about the recycling center in San Juan operated by the women’s cooperative, COFERENE. Thanks to the efforts of Joe Brown and others from the community a major effort is under way to organize, clean up and paint the center.

Show your support for recycling and COFERENE by joining us this Saturday for a clean up effort. The work day will be organized as follows: remove garbage for hauling to dump, clean up (sweeping and mopping), and then painting if time permits.

Following are the details:

Day/Date: Saturday, July 10
Shifts: 8:00 am to 11:00 am (bring a snack)
11:00 am to 2:00 pm (bring a bag lunch)

Things to Bring: Gloves
Mops and brooms
Paint trays and brushes
Snack or Lunch

Note that in addition to helping the center operate more safely and efficiently we will be helping COFERENE prepare for an Environmental Fair (Feria Ambiental) they are hosting on Friday, July 16 to celebrate their 15th year of operation.

If you’re able to volunteer your time please email mike@styles.com and indicate which shift you can work. Your help will be greatly appreciated!
