Mayor's Award - Zoe and Zac, Z & Z Recycling, Inc.

A few years ago, with the help of their family, eight year-old Zoe and her six year-old brother Zac started their own recycling collection business called Z & Z Recycling, Inc. Over the years their collection efforts have grown, and their contribution to the community doesn’t end there. Zac and Zoe’s business model includes donating half of their proceeds to local charities. These young entrepreneurs serve as role models to us all in Costa Mesa, and special thanks go out to their Parents Jeff and Dori, their Grandparents Rachel and Phil, their Uncle Adam and their network of recycling neighbors who all pitch in to save their bottles and cans and assist Zoe and Zac in fulfilling their socially responsible mission.
