The third edition of the Plásticos por Útiles Escolares initiative concluded this Saturday, successfully collecting 16.5 million plastic bottles. The event facilitated the distribution of over 24,000 kits, each containing a backpack and an electronic tablet, to participating families in exchange for the collected plastic waste.
This program aims to promote environmental sustainability while providing educational resources to local students. By incentivizing recycling through the provision of school supplies, the initiative addresses both waste management and educational accessibility for the families involved.
