Authentic Experience

 By March 13, 2025, our preparation gave us the confidence to connect with people and promote Friendlier initiatives. We visited all the food courts of Humber, and we commenced our work at the food emporium at 12 p.m., the busiest area of the campus. There, we spoke with numerous pupils about our proposal, such as emphasizing on benefits of reusing containers to the environment and using the Friendlier application helps to get back refunds that they paid when purchasing food. Honestly speaking, we found that many people were unaware of the friendlier program. When we explained all the steps to them, they were surprised and glad to grasp it. Nonetheless, we unfortunately noticed that certain individuals mistakenly throw their containers into regular garbage bins rather than putting them into the designated friendlier blue bins; this showed us that awareness is an important step. 




Now, we are about to share our most remarkable and touching moment of that day. At Starbucks, we unexpectedly spotted our professor, Irene Kairys, grabbing her coffee. When we approached her, she greeted us pleasantly and was genuinely interested in our program. She listened to us eagerly, and we spoke about the program in detail. Her support and encouraging words made us feel proud and confident, and we asked for a picture to make memories unforgettable.

Our top concern is to preserve the environment for both present and future generations. We worked collaboratively as a team at Humber College Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning to promote sustainable practices. Our main technique was to talk with teachers and pupils to encourage eco-friendly practices.
