There are plenty of volunteering opportunities near your San Mateo apartment, including becoming a nature volunteer serving local schools.
Nature volunteers support children in learning about, as well as developing love for science and nature. They work with small groups of children, both in the classroom and on the field, to discover more about the world in which they live. Learning is hands-on and allows children to get closer to the nature that is around them every day.
To become a volunteer, you need to be at least 18 years old, willing to complete a short training course that is run one day a week, and pay a small fee.
Once training is complete, you can give as little as four hours a month to the project. All volunteering takes place during the week, with details and new opportunities regularly updated on the volunteer site.

If you’re renting one of our luxury green apartments in San Mateo, choosing eco-friendly bathroom decor and accessories is a no-brainer.

One type of material that will give your bathroom the feel of a spa is bamboo, and all types of products are made with it. While touted as an eco-friendly material, bamboo does have its detractors.
As an educated consumer, you can be sure the bamboo products you buy don’t have a detrimental environmental impact by buying only sustainably-sourced products.
Creating fabrics from bamboo fibers requires a lengthy, chemical heavy process, but it’s still not as bad as non-organic cotton processing.
Floor mats, vanity accessories, wastebaskets, towel racks, drawer organizers, and shelves that use bamboo harvested from sustainable farms is a viable green way to decorate your bathroom, even though most products are still produced overseas.
There are a few US sources that are making bamboo toilet paper, paper towels, and other products using a thermo-mechanical process rather than chemical, which is an even better solution for our luxury green apartments in San Mateo.
Our community is LEED Gold-designated and offers a full range of eco-friendly amenities. Contact us today for more information or to schedule a tour.
