奇努克公园学校和亨利·怀斯伍德高中邀请您从现在到一月底加入他们，收集破损的节日彩灯。这将有助于防止彩灯被送入垃圾填埋场，而可以进行铜的回收利用。 
 
彩灯可以从现在到一月底捐赠至奇努克公园学校（1312 75 Ave SW）、亨利·怀斯伍德高中（910 75 Ave SW）或 CBE教育中心（1221 - 8 Street SW）。请参考此视频获取更多信息。

从捐赠彩灯中获得的资金将捐赠给学生选择的慈善机构，以及Star EcoWorks。这个项目是学生如何在他们的社区中创造社会影响的真实示例，从K-12年级的学生将学会如何回收利用彩灯以及为什么要这样做。该项目已与一家废铁场合作，提供橡胶垃圾箱以收集彩灯，并在一月底进行取件服务，以便组织方便。

参与学校的数量将被追踪，以衡量有多少公斤的彩灯将被从填埋场中转移出去。

Chinook Park School and Henry Wise Wood High School invite you to join them in collecting broken holiday lights from now until the end of January. This will help prevent lights from going into our landfills, when they can be recycled for copper. 
 
Lights can be donated from now until the end of January at Chinook Park School (1312 75 Ave SW), Henry Wise Wood High School (910 75 Ave SW), or the CBE's Education Centre (1221 - 8 Street SW). Please see this video for more information.

Funds received from the donation of the lights will be donated to charities of the students' choosing, as well as to Star EcoWorks. This project is an authentic example of how students can create social impact in their community from K-12, students learn HOW to recycle the lights and WHY. The program has partnered with a scrap metal yard, which will provide Rubbermaid totes to collect the lights, as well as pick up service at the end of January, for easy organization.

The number of schools that participate will be tracked to measure the environmental impact of how many kg of lights will be diverted from the landfill.
