“Trash Busters” at Midland Classical Academy


A group of students at Midland Classical Academy volunteer every Tuesday after school to pick up trash at a nearby shopping center. They have named themselves the “Trash Busters” and are on a mission to make the world a cleaner place. Aniyah L. (granddaughter of Ops Supervisor Ricky R. in Midland, Texas) put together a presentation for her principal to pitch a program where she, along with her classmates, would pick up the trash around the school. Republic Services BU205 sponsored the program after hearing the pitch, and donated grabbers, vests, caps, gloves, trash bags and hand sanitizer.

“Thank you to the Trash Busters for giving us the opportunity to help them keep their school and community clean!” said Jazmin S., Human Resources Manager.
