Santa Monica – Malibu Unified School District (SMMUSD) donated more than 500 auditorium armchairs for charitable reuse in Honduras. As announced in their recent news release, this effort diverted eleven tons of waste from the landfill and upheld the district’s commitment to green building and operations.
FRS facilitated the match of SMMUSD’s surplus with a large international charity operating in the Caribbean. The seating has been installed in a ministry serving impoverished children and adults in Honduras. The auditorium seating was part of a refurbishment project district-wide refurbishment project that sent 7,500 furniture items (107 tons) to charities and nonprofits in the USA, Africa, and the Caribbean.
