From cans to college dreams. ♻️ See how one teen is transforming Hawaii’s coastlines and communities. Genshu Price grew up in Hauula, Hawaii — a place known for its stunning beaches and aloha spirit, but also one where high living costs make higher education feel out of reach. What started as a father-son challenge to collect cans and bottles for college money turned into something bigger: @Bottles4College, a nonprofit using recycling to fund scholarships for local students.
In our latest episode of Voices of Change: Conversations with Volunteers Shaping Community, legacy #DailyPointofLight Award honoree Genshu Price shares how Bottles4College is turning recyclables into opportunities, creating cleaner coastlines and brighter futures, one bottle at a time. He opens up about the personal journey that fuels his mission and offers powerful advice for anyone ready to make their mark in the environmental movement.
