Distribution of Recycled bags to Car Pool Drivers

Date: 29^th July 2025.

In an effort to reduce littering and instill good habits among students, JPIC team Loreto Convent Darjeeling initiated a campaign to distribute recycled bags to all carpool drivers. The aim was to provide a dedicated space in vehicles for children to throw their wrappers, rather than discarding them on the road.

A total of 32 recycled bags were distributed to the carpool drivers.

Each bag was made from reusable materials and clearly labelled for waste collection.

Students and drivers were briefed about the purpose of the bag and the importance of using it regularly.

Initial feedback from the drivers were positive. They were delighted to receive the recycled bags and appreciated the thoughtful gesture and expressed gratitude for the initiative.

To ensure all cars received a bag, students thoughtfully inserted a bag through small window gaps in unattended vehicles.

This was a small but impactful step towards building a cleaner and more responsible community. Continued encouragement and monitoring will help make this a lasting habit.
