My name is Chi Kim, and I am the principal of Point Dume Marine Science School in Malibu.  I contacted Jon and Mimi Torp this summer because I had heard of a program that they sponsor, Environ Medals, at Franklin Elementary School in Santa Monica.  I spoke to the principal there, and she told me how great it was for her students.  Jon and Mimi were wonderful to sponsor our school this year.  The program has been wildly successful, and students have earned over 100 medals in 3 weeks time!

Every week in our newsletter, students who earn medals are listed in our electronic newsletter that goes out to over 350 people. 

I just wanted to thank Jon and Mimi for being such thoughtful, environmentally conscious  and generous realtors. 

With much gratitude,

Chi Kim

Dear Jon and Mimi,

Thank you for developing and sponsoring the ENVIRON-MEDALS program at my daughter, Sascha school.  It is a wonderful program and our family and friends are enjoying the rewards of reducing, reusing and recycling.

Warmly,
Andrea Lanier, parent, PTA committeeperson and psychologist
 

A BIG THANK YOU to you, Mimi and your daughter for coming up with such a great idea for all school kids to be a part of!

The Environ Medals are very inspiring to both children and grown ups too!

Hopefully the Earth friendly practices will stay with the families...

Hillcrest Academy received their medals and we are SO pleased with the quality!

A mention about the program being at Hillcrest was included in the November newsletter for SLOW FOOD of Temecula Valley.

Here it is...

Oh my gosh, your Environ Medals were such a HIT!  The students wore them to the school’s Awards Assembly and we had them stand up to show who participated in Green Team for the year.

Thanks again!
