Project Details

Cascades Academy reduce its waste output by reducing the use of single use dishware at events. They will offer a dishware kit to each of their schools, Lower, Middle, and Upper, to use at events and will begin collecting food waste during lunch times. Cascade Academy aims to not just reduce their waste but to refuse to use single-use items such as non-recyclable cups, plates, and silverware.
