How much do we love Tzu Chi Environmental Sustainability Day? A LOT!

This is a monthly event usually held on the third Sunday of the month.

On Environmental Sustainability Day, you can bring your recyclables to one of their collection points where they will be sorted by volunteers and then sold to recycling companies. The proceeds from those sales will be used to support their good works.
