Project Color My World
After watching a restaurant server throw away barely-used crayons at the end of a family meal, Yoni identified an opportunity to turn trash into treasure. An avid recycler, Yoni launched Color My World (CMW) in 2010, a project that promotes environmental awareness by finding a use for recycled crayons, creating a sustainable model for recycling, and donating crayons to homeless shelters, schools, and refugee camps around the world. To foster community engagement, Yoni encourages teens to host crayon donation drives and involve restaurants in supporting the cause, while educating children about the importance of recycling.
