Do you have what it takes to “recycle right”? Eight Mecklenburg County partners and businesses were recognized recently for their outstanding recycling efforts at the 2018 Wipe Out Waste Ambassador Awards.
The annual award ceremony is the highlight of Mecklenburg County’s Wipe Out Waste Ambassador Program, a free networking and educational program for local businesses that are committed to building a stronger community through recycling and reducing waste in the workplace.
The program recognizes and rewards Mecklenburg County businesses for their waste reduction and recycling efforts, and has over 200 member organizations, ranging from small non-profits to large corporations.
District 5 Commissioner Matthew Ridenhour emceed the awards presentation and presented awards to seven businesses, each within a distinct award category. A short video highlighting the efforts of the winning business was shown in conjunction with the presentation of each award and can be viewed on the website.
