Earth Day celebration a sunny success!

Yesterday's Earth Day celebration in downtown Orlando was a major success for CTWF. We had hundreds of people stop by our booth, all of which were genuinely interested and appreciative of our soap recycling efforts and our goal to save lives by promoting handwashing. We handed out over 500 bottles of bubbles to children, signed up many participants in our raffle, and met many new friends whom we intend to stay in contact with over the upcoming years.

I'd like to extend a big thank you to all of the CTWF staff who helped at the booth, our friends, family and partners who stopped by to say hello, and those who provided us words of appreciation and encouragement. After today, everyone at CTWF knows we are doing the right thing for humankind, those in need, and the environment.

If you didn't make it out to see us at this event we hope to see you at the next one! Stay tuned for our upcoming event information or sign up for our newsletter.
