Jim and Bev Young don’t just talk about recycling – they live it. If you’ve ever dropped off materials at a Summit County recycling center, chances are you’ve seen them in action. Whether they’re answering tricky recycling questions for HC3’s “Stump the Recyclers” program or rolling up their sleeves to clean up misplaced materials, Jim and Bev make it their mission to keep our community’s recycling efforts on track.
Their dedication goes beyond just knowing what belongs in each bin – it’s about connecting with people. They take the time to chat with residents, ensuring that every glass bottle, aluminum can, and cardboard box finds its proper place. Their enthusiasm is contagious, inspiring others to be just as mindful about waste.
Volunteering isn’t just something Jim and Bev do; it’s who they are. Their impact reaches far beyond HC3, as they give their time to numerous organizations across Summit County. They lead by example, proving that small, everyday actions can add up to a big difference for the planet.
HC3 is proud to honor Jim and Bev Young as this year’s Outstanding Community Advocates. Their dedication makes our community – and our environment – better for everyone.
