THE HEB/Central Market Grant provided "seed money" necessary to launch a comprehensive learning program at Salado Independent School District to encourage the next generation, "GEN3", with environmental stewardship and sustainability practices. This grant will allow reading material, informational brochures, supplies, and instructional learning kits for all campus levels Kindergarten -12th grade.
Keep Salado Beautiful partnered with Salado ISD, Bell county Master Naturalists, Bell county Master Gardeners, the community of Salado and surrounding areas to support events during the year. With the help of these groups the grant will increase access to recycling and improving policies to promote waste education and reuse, incorporate standard green practices in all Village operations, improve and protect Salado's natural assets and introduce youth to career opportunities in environmental science, sustainable development, renewable energy, policies and advocacy. |
