“Trash 2020” is up and running!

Well almost! Found the source for the cans, talked with the garbage men about size and now waiting for the transport fellow to tell us when he can get them...all thanks to the leg work of Mazinka! Today picked up the first Western Union donation here at OXXO, thanks so much to the folks who made the transfer! Right now looks as though we have 8,000 pesos or about 30 garbage cans paid for! If you would like to purchase one or more for your neighbors and help eliminate all the crates and paint buckets on the streets that the dogs get into, please contact me! Looks like approx. 300 per can and that would include shipment! This initiative does not interfere with la manzanilla hermosa and is intended for the neighborhoods and outlying areas where trash is a problem!! Thanks a bunch! | ------------Re: “Trash 2020” is up and running!

Good! I think with more receptacles around, people will be willing to walk a few extra steps to deposit their trash where it belongs. Looking forward to an arroyo cleanup soon, too. It’s a community building activity. Thanks, all, for taking these initiatives, and to people who donated money so local people can still earn a few pesos during this weird “quiet” season. (Not so quiet this time. Lots of Mexican tourists here, aren’t there?.) | ------------
