Delegate Bag Donations (January 26, 2009)

Recycle, renew, sustain. PDAC continues to provide an earth-friendly convention bag to delegates. This year’s bag is light-weight and durable, made with 100% post-consumer recycled materials — yesterday’s discarded water bottles and yogurt containers.

Delegates who wish to recycle their bags may donate them at the end of the convention to Frontier College, a national, volunteer-based, literacy organization. College volunteers will collect the convention bags and later distribute them to students in remote aboriginal communities. Proud sponsors of this initiative are Canaccord Adams, KPMG, Silver Wheaton and Vale Exploration Canada.
