One Dime at a Time

The Raptor Project encourages you to do away with plastic and paper grocery bags and get your re-usable shopping bag at Whole Foods Town & Country on Saturday!

Stop in at Whole Foods Market Town & Country on Saturday between noon and 3pm for a Raptor Project concert – watch them as they perform songs from their two children's music CD's Save the Future and All Along the Watershed.

If you are one of the first 50 audience members you will get a free re-usable shopping bag!

Then take your shopping bag inside and help World Bird Sanctuary when you bag up your groceries . . . here's how:

World Bird Sanctuary is the beneficiary of Whole Foods Market Town & Country's One Dime at a Time program for April, May and June 2011.  This means that every time you shop at Whole Foods Market Town & Country, and take in  your own shopping bag, you will be offered a 10¢ refund.  You can then choose to have this refund donated to World Bird Sanctuary.  It's a win-win!  The environment wins – no non-biodegradable plastic finding its way into our waterways; and World Bird Sanctuary wins – your donated refunds will help us continue the important work in our wildlife hospital and endangered species breeding center.

We'll even get you started!  When you shop at Whole Foods Market Town and Country between 12pm and 3pm on the following dates, you will get a free re-usable shopping bag from Whole Foods Market and World Bird Sanctuary (offer limited to first 50 visitors to the World Bird Sanctuary table per day).

Saturday May 28th             12pm – 3pm
Saturday June 18th            12pm – 3pm
  
We wish to express our thanks to Whole Foods Market for supporting World Bird Sanctuary through their One Dime at a Time program, and through their ongoing efforts to encourage us all to shop in a more environmentally sustainable way.
