Answer- Between January 2022 to the end of October 2022 our small but mighty team sorted and recycled 93,467 cans! Our GOT CANS team diverted 24,660 plastic drink containers from our local landfill at the same time! We are very proud of the work we are doing even if it means pulling these items out of bags with garbage and used diapers, if it means saving our drink containers from the landfill and waterways then it is all worth it!
We have not given an update as we have been busy sorting and recycling.
We are happy to announce that we are growing and have partnered up with Fergie's Cafe /Sunwolf in Brackendale, BC. We are excited to work together to reduce waste and increase diversion practices!
GOT CANS is expanding and is now in search of a great van!
We anticipate using it to provide excellent curb-side service to both our business partners and community donors.
Last but not least GOT CANS is thrilled and very grateful to announce that we have been nominated as one of the top 3 finalists for the Squamish Chamber of Commerce --Business Excellence Award for Green Business of the Year. Winners will be announced at the December 01, 2022, Squamish Chamber of Commerce Gala -Squamish Business Excellence Awards.
And we cannot end this blog without thanking both the businesses and residences' that continue to support our efforts and donate to GOT CANS!
