Partnering with School District 79 schools to build community spirit, run bottle drive competitions, and connect students with meaningful volunteer opportunities.
The School Partnership Program connects Cowichan Connects with schools across School District 79, creating ongoing bottle collection programs, volunteer opportunities for students, and a culture of community service in our schools.
Our flagship initiative is the Annual School Bottle Drive Championship - where schools compete to collect the most bottles, with the winning school earning a trophy, community recognition, and a pizza party celebration!
Schools compete all year to collect the most bottles. Updated monthly.
Championship runs January - November 2025. Winner announced at the Annual Gala, November 15, 2025.
Is your school in School District 79? We'd love to partner with you! Getting started is easy and completely free.
The Cowichan Connects School Champion Trophy, a pizza party for the winning class, social media recognition, a feature at the Annual Gala, and bragging rights for the whole year!
