The Eden Prairie AM Rotary Club is hosting its third annual Eden Prairie ECO EXPO on Saturday, April 20, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. in the center court at Eden Prairie Center mall.
This family-friendly event was created to inspire residents of Eden Prairie and surrounding communities to live sustainably, contribute to their city’s sustainability goals, and to do good by helping to fund the Rotary Club’s community and global grants.
Admission is free, but a $10 donation to the Eden Prairie AM Rotary Foundation is suggested to help fund the Rotary Club’s upcoming grants.
The event boasts more than 45 informative eco-exhibitors and sponsors, a Family Fun Zone of eco-based hands-on activities, and a raffle for exhibitor-donated eco-friendly items listed on the event website.
“We are so excited to partner with our sponsors and exhibitors to bring this inspiring, informative, and fun event to our community,” said Rotary Club Event Chair Tim Conners. He added that the fundraiser’s focus was motivated by Rotary International’s recently added seventh focus: protecting the environment.
A media release states that the event will feature exhibitors ready to explain their efforts in making the environment safer and healthier. They will share simple steps people can take to help their community and the planet. The event also welcomes students, offering them a chance to enjoy themselves and learn about internships and careers focused on environmental sustainability.
