The MEFF Initiative, which stand for Mon Ellyn Fogarty Franco, is dedicated to promoting environmental sustainability. Our campaign slogan, “Make Eco-Friendly Fun (MEFF),” aims to educate and empower individuals to make eco-friendly choices in their daily lives. The initiative focuses on making sustainability enjoyable and accessible to people of all ages and backgrounds.
One of the key aspects of The MEFF initiative is its emphasis on education. The campaign provides resources and information to help people understand the importance of sustainability and the impact of their daily choices on the environment. By raising awareness and providing education, The MEFF initiative aims to inspire individuals to make more eco-friendly decisions in their lives.
In addition to education, The MEFF initiative also focuses on empowerment. The campaign encourages people to take action in their own lives to reduce their environmental impact. This can include simple actions such as reducing waste, conserving energy, and choosing sustainable products. By empowering individuals to make these changes, The MEFF initiative seeks to create a more sustainable future for all.

Hey there, teachers! Are you ready to inspire your students to make a difference this Earth Day? Let’s dive into some fun and educational tools to teach them about the importance of protecting our planet from plastic pollution.
- Interactive Games: Engage students with online games that highlight the impact of plastic on the environment. Games that can make learning about plastics and recycling exciting and memorable.
- Story Time: Share inspiring stories about individuals or communities taking action to reduce plastic waste. Stories can help students understand the real-world impact of their actions and inspire them to make positive changes.
- Hands-On Activities: Get students involved in hands-on activities like creating eco-friendly crafts from recycled materials or conducting a waste audit at school. These activities can help them understand the importance of reducing, reusing, and recycling.
- Documentaries and Videos: Show age-appropriate documentaries or short videos that explore the impact of plastic pollution on the environment and wildlife. Videos can be a powerful tool to spark discussions and encourage students to think critically about their consumption habits.

words to live by
Man! Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.”
-The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity
words to live by
“I have three precious things which I hold fast and prize. The first is gentleness; the second is frugality; the third is humility, which keeps me from putting myself before others. Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be liberal; avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men.”
-Lao Tzu
