Project La Merced attempts to be as environmentally friendly and sustainable as possible. This includes the all-important three Rs that are taught to our partners – REUSE, REDUCE and RECYCLE! We create a lot of posters to use in our workshops, posters that we want to REUSE again when we do the workshop in another location, but with the rough roads, frequent rain, dust, and general use, they quickly get tattered. We currently cover what we can using large masking tape or expensive clear plastic that we can get in a stationary shop, but this takes more time and money than we like. A laminator would save us this time and money, but it takes an initial investment – something you could help us with! In order to REDUCE the amount of paper that we use, we would love to invest in a projector. A large part of our work here involves going into communities and schools to carry out interactive workshops on topics that are important and super relevant to our partners. Like with the laminator, a projector involves an initial investment – yet another way in which you can help us, our partners and the environment! Now if you’ll permit me to drop all modesty for a minute, I must say that we are fantastic at RECYCLING! While it makes our office look cluttered and somewhat messy it is totally worth it.
