SCA, a leading global hygiene and forest products company, and one of the Philadelphia region’s most sustainable companies, will award a $1,000 Environmental Education Grant to Radnor Middle School for its program entitled, “Sustainability Through the Arts: A Cross-Cultural Collaboration.” The SCA funds will be used to enhance and expand upon the school’s existing sustainability partnership with its sister school in Buppala, Uganda. Using textiles, music and culinary arts, the 6th grade students will learn about population density, the value of shared resources, and communicating messages of best practices in sustainability through music.
