Read For A Greener Akron Event
This summer, local author Dina Younis teams up with Keep Akron Beautiful for Read for a Greener Akron, a six-week family reading and sustainability challenge.
The kickoff is May 30 at Hardesty Park with a storytime of S is for Secondhand, hands-on sustainability activities, and challenge passports to guide participants. Local buisness ‘Tansy Recycling’ will also be having a table to showcase how they transform waste into functional, beautiful items!
Over six weeks, families complete simple eco-friendly actions at home, like donating, reusing, planting, and picking up litter. Completed passports earn a small prize and entry into a raffle for a larger family prize basket.
