An idea today keeps the waste away

This initiative from Metro was created to encourage students to participate in the development of a healthier environment. Since it was introduced in the fall of 2009, the program has rallied thousands of students from Ontario and Quebec and encouraged them to become involved in their school and make a difference in their community.

Metro has awarded hundreds of $1,000 grants to elementary and high schools with ideas for green projects in their communities and the company will distribute up to $1 million dollars for this program.
