We are always so sad to see April come to an end. Between Earth Month, our #PledgeAgainstPlasticStraws Campus Challenge, and the days getting longer and sunnier, April is always a favorite month at Simply Straws. This April has been bittersweet. We've all settled into new routines and redefined what "normal" means to us as individuals and as a company. While time moves differently, we are excited to announce the winners of our annual April event, the #PledgeAgainstPlasticStraws Campus Challenge!
With about 80 schools participating virtually, the challenge has been different but still amazing this year. Congrats to the schools that motivated their communities from a safe distance. But enough with the small talk. The winners are...
College
1st: INDIANA STATE UNIVERSITY
2nd: LONGWOOD UNIVERSITY
3rd: CAL STATE LA
K-12
1st: RANCHO VERDE HIGH SCHOOL
2nd: WEBSTER THOMAS HIGH SCHOOL
3rd: WESTSIDE HIGH SCHOOL
Thank you to our campus leaders that were able to overcome the restrictions of the covid-19 pandemic to make this challenge a success. Thank you to every person who took the #pledge and has taken a small action to make a communal impact.
