Local author Stephanie Armenia wants to raise awareness about recycling in Florida Public Schools. She has designed an exciting new outreach to encourage the habit of recycling early in life by focusing on second graders and plastic water bottles. Sponsors are needed to help underwrite the cost of printing these educational books.
According to Stephanie: "The centerpiece for the project is the book When Will We Be Recycled, Momma? which will be donated to all second graders in Hillsborough County Public schools this year. We are seeking funding from families and companies to help underwrite the printing costs of the books." Armenia is working with Tampa Bay Beautification to develop a comprehensive educational program that includes a teachers guide and extension activities that correlate to all Sunshine State and national standards.
