feature hands-on activities that students will be able to complete. Based on enrollment num- <br />bers, DCOC anticipates reaching 2,100 students through this program. Students will receive <br />multiple lessons, until normal Waste Free Day operations can be resumed. Students who par- <br />ticipate in this will also receive book and programming recommendations from the Santa Ana <br />Library system to continue their learning. <br />World of Organics Game Access <br />In partnership with Orange County Waste and Recycling, DCOC is developing an $800,000, <br />multimedia game surrounding organics recycling. Originally developed for an exhibit at DCOC, <br />we are now formatting the game to be playable on a computer or tablet. The World of Organics <br />game features games and activities to help understand how to create enriched soil that helps <br />retain moisture, suppresses plant disease and pests, and encourages healthy plant growth. <br />Playing the competitive, fast -paced game will challenge guests to understand the process that <br />takes place when composting, and how the production of beneficial bacteria and fungi break <br />down organic matter. As a part of the COVID response, DCOC will make the game available <br />to all residents of Santa Ana. As an added benefit of Waste Free Day programming, DCOC will <br />continue to make the game available to all residents once we shift back to normal operations. <br />Social Media Partnership <br />DCOC also proposes partnering with Santa Ana Public Works on a series of social media posts. <br />These posts will serve to make Santa Ana residents aware of their access to the World of <br />Organics game, as well as to promote proper waste diversion through activities and messaging <br />campaigns. DCOC can target these social media posts to reach residents of the City only. We <br />will utilize Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to get our messaging out. DCOC is proposing to <br />do a minimum of 4 posts per month. Through these posts, DCOC will reach over 300,000 <br />people per month with our messaging. These posts will continue until the traditional Waste <br />Free Day can resume. <br />Cost for COVID Response <br />DCOC has worked to leverage as many partnerships and resources as possible in creating the <br />COVID response for Santa Ana Waste Free Day. As such, this suite of programs is designed <br />to provide a maximum amount of value for the same per -month price that is already set for <br />Waste Free Day, while offering programming that makes up for the dates that have been <br />missed. The intent is to seamlessly transition over to this programming quickly and efficiently. <br />251-12 <br />
