Got Mardi Gras beads? Bring them to the New Orleans Hornets game
As part of the Hornets Planet Rebound initiative, the Hornets encourage fans to donate their Mardi Gras beads at their home game on Sunday, Feb. 21. The beads will be donated to the Arc of Greater New Orleans who will collect the Mardi Gras trinkets, repackage them and then re-sell the recycled beads as part of their annual fundraising efforts.
“Mardi Gras beads are an important tradition to our city and community, and you don’t normally think to recycle them after the parades,” said Hornets President Hugh Weber. “This is a great way our fans can recycle their unwanted beads and help an organization like Arc continue to make a difference in their members’ lives.”
