Join us on June 15th at the Eddy Pub in Saxapahaw to enjoy some great local food and support Kay Blada Recycling! The Eddy Pub has generously agreed to donate proceeds to KBR, and this event will be a great opportunity to find out about all the exciting upcoming plans Kay Blada will be bringing to Haiti. More details to come. We hope you can join us.

Kay Blada's New Location

 

In January, Kay Blada purchased a 1/2 acre plot of land that will be the organization's permanent location. Moving to this new location will allow us to grow and expand throughout Center Plateau, Haiti.

 

We have been fundraising to make the necessary land payments. Of the $20,000 needed, we have raised $8,000. Please continue to support us and help us reach our goal of $20,000!

July Work Trip to Haiti

 

Every 3 months, Blada makes a trip to Haiti to meet with collectors, touch base with staff, and work on expanding Kay Blada's reach in Center Plateau. In July, he will be in Haiti from 7/4-7/21.

 

These are his goals for the upcoming work trip:

 

"1) I will focus on helping with the planning for the next year of the Environmental Education Program. I want to work with the Education Program Manager on designing a book that will be at the level of each class/grade.

 

2) I will also be focusing on finalizing the process of the land purchasing and planing for the relocation of Kay Blada Recycling to the new location."

New Staff T-shirts

 

Many collectors have asked for new Kay Blada tshirts to wear as they collect, sort, and clean plastic. KBR has been working to change the stigma against picking up and sorting trash, but many of the men and women are teased as they pick up plastic. Wearing the organization logo shows passers-by that they are a part of something important.

 

With a recent donation, Blada will be bringing new tshirts for the collectors. The work that they do helps makes Haiti a more beautiful place, and we would not be here without them!

As always, thank you for everything you do to support us.
