Lou Gehrig Middle School

Recyling Contest at the Lou Gehrig Middle School

 

 

Action Environmental Group challenged four classes at the Lou Gehrig Middle School, IS 151 to develop innovative ways to teach other students and their community the value of recycling. The students created their own recycling “green machine”, a presentation to educate parents at parent teacher night, composed a song about recycling and even designated themselves to handle all recycling issues at the school.   Nicole Simon, ranked No.1 in her eight grade class, created the winning idea; a bake sale where recyclables were used as currency to purchase baked goods. Nicole won the contest for her class by designing this innovative recycling currency.

 

On September 18th, Action is taking 80 students to the Yankee Game where CEO Ron Bergamini, Principle Rivera and Nicole Simon will be apart of the opening ceremony.

Action is proud to announce that we will be donating our services to the Komen Greater NYC Race for the Cure^®  event this Sunday, September 9th. To make this event more green, we set up designated stations for recycling, solid waste and composting. Action is no stranger to sponsoring events that help find the cure for breast cancer. In the past, Action has sponsored many events like A Celebration of Courage for the Octoberwoman Foundation. This is an issue close to the hearts of many of our employees and we are proud to support such a wonderful cause.

“Many of Action's family has been touched by breast cancer. Fortunately many though not all of the incidents have ended well thanks in large part to the efforts of the Susan G Koman organization. We are proud to help advance that agenda which also includes a commitment to our environment through a robust recycling program. “- Ceo, Ron Bergamini

 

Action will have a booth stationed at the event and employees will be participating in the walk.
