Check out how kindergarten teacher, Nancy Jois from Capri Elementary, used her teacher grant to fund her project, the Capri Rain Garden🌧
This project taught kindergarten classes about the water cycle, erosion and landscaping in our dry Southern California climate. With this grant, the students created models of individual water cycles, used their models to demonstrate the concept of erosion, and added plants to the school campus rain garden to help prevent erosion/ water runoff into a storm drain.
Great work to Nancy & her kindergarten students!

Let FOG cool, pour them in a can, and seal the can with a lid. Pouring FOG down your drain can potentially cause a sewer backup in your home and may lead to a sewer spill.
Write us at info@lwwd.org to get your own can topper and celebrate in style while doing your part to protect the local community.

This is what a clogged pipe looks like. Prevent this from ever happening to you by making sure you never dump FOG down the drain.
What's FOG, you ask? Fats, Oils, and Grease. These substances are harmful to your pipes and can potentially cause a sewage back-up into your home. Instead, be sure to toss FOG in the garbage.
