Did you know Black History Month honors the contributions of African Americans to U.S. history? Among the prominent figures are: - Madam C.J. Walker, who was the first U.S. woman to become a self-made millionaire. - George Washington Carver, who derived nearly 300 products from the peanut. - Rosa Parks, who sparked the Montgomery Bus Boycott and galvanized the civil rights movement. - Shirley Chisholm, who was the first African American woman elected to the U.S. House of Representatives. #togetherwearebetter #wasteconnectionsproud #themoreyouknow #wctogetherwearebetter #blackhistorymonth

Did you know, since 1976 every American president has designated February as Black History Month and endorsed a specific theme? February 2021's theme, "Black Family: Representation, Identity and Diversity" explores the dispersion of Africans from their homeland and the movement of Black families across the United States. #togetherwearebetter #wasteconnectionsproud #wctogetherwearebetter #themoreyouknow #blackhistorymonth
We love receiving stories from our customers about the exceptional work our frontline is doing. Our team at Sanipac in Eugene, Oregon, recently received this message from a customer about frontline driver Josiah. "I heard the garbage truck pull in today and noticed it was sitting there longer than usual. So, I popped my head out the window and noticed that some other resident threw away a mini flag pole with the flag still attached to it. I witnessed the gentleman in this picture take the flag off the pole, fold it up appropriately, put it in his cabin and continued on with his day. Much respect to you sir." Way to go Josiah! Demonstrating our #2 Company value - Integrity! #togetherwearebetter #wasteconnectionscares #wasteconnectionsproud #wctogetherwearebetter #kindnesscounts #somuchmorethantrash #safetyfirst #wasteandrecycling
We frequently receive stories from our customers regarding the positive impact our frontline is making. We couldn't help but share this very special birthday story. Our team at Waste Connections of Weatherford, TX, recently went above and beyond to make one little boy's 2nd birthday something he'll never forget. Take a look at what his mom had to say about the experience. "What an AMAZING day! EW turned TWO today and he got a surprise visit from Waste Connections of Weatherford! EW LOVES trash day and all things "Big Blue Truck." The team brought him some presents and let him sit in the brand new truck, press buttons, and honk the horn. It brought me to tears and it made his entire year! This will be a tough birthday to top!" Happy Birthday EW and way to go Weatherford team! #togetherwearebetter #wasteconnectionscares #wasteconnectionsproud #wctogetherwearebetter #somuchmorethantrash #kindnesscounts
