Last weekend was quite a success! Wawa #8035 in the Parkwood Manor section of Philadelphia donated over 250 while an additional 157 were donated by individuals! With those totals, we’ve officially crossed 1000! But that doesn’t mean we can stop here. The more cards we have, the more picks we have and the picks we have means the more we can sell to support music programs.
In other awesome news, Philly ska band On Display used our recycled picks and they gave them glowing reviews. Here are tweets from Tom Rice and Michael J. Wolk:
There is a lot going on behind the scenes right now and hopefully by update #3, I’ll be able to give you more details. Until then, check out the brand breakdowns.
