With Earth Day around the corner, we figured the time was right to introduce you to our compostable and biodegradable friend, the bowl.
To celebrate, starting this Thursday (4/14/10) and for the next TWO WEEKS, you can purchase any Original-size bowl for just $5, but that’s not all!
In the spirit of giving, for each and every bowl (yes, that goes for Mini and Small sizes, too) that we sell over the next two weeks, we’re going to donate $1 to a local green organization.
Visit our facebook page and nominate your favorite green cause. Be sure to let everyone know why your organization rocks because the non-profits that receive the most “thumbs up” will be featured on a boloco.com poll to determine who will receive some “green” to help make the Earth just a little bit greener.
Save a couple hundred calories and a little bit of planet… sweet!
I don’t have Facebook and I have to sign up to leave a comment.
I hope you donate to Jane Goodall Foundation. Her work with saving Chimps from loss of habitat, poaching and be killed for bush meat is devastating. I am seeing her speak on May 3rd in Harvard Univ. This would be a great surprise to her and her foundation. She also has started Root and Shoots to get children involved.
I pasted in this email info – her mission, values etc (http://www.janegoodall.org/)
