    Well it’s kinda weird but when I first started to pick up trash around my community I was helped but some younger kids and then it became know. Over the few weeks other member fo the community and I have talk and had conversations and it gave me opportunities to meet new people and talk to people in my community that I would normally not engage with. It also brought a since of home to my community and put more pride in to me about it.

    Today’s nice out side so I took my niece on a walk and I’ve been using a reusable water bottle instead of plastic.
