Mrs. and Mr. Ponder
I saw the article in the Daily Reflector about the Unnatural Resources Institute and it reminded me how important of a role the Institute's programs played in my choice to study sustainable architecture. The principles of this organization are the foundation of what all sustainable practices emerge from; culturing creative thought on how to limit consumption of natural resources and reuse what we already have, the unnatural resources. Emerging in a field of sustainable architect, Planning, and Interior Design today I have many colleagues who share in this belief and understand the need of all programs that foster sustainable education and advancement.
We applaud your program and look forward to its continued growth.

"The Unnatural Resources Fair has provided citizens with a hands-on,
visible means of seeing how we can all be a part of saving natural
resources. When we create things from products which have already utilized
natural resources in their production, we save these same resources from
depletion. It is a win-win situation."

"Learning the importance of reusing materials is key to our earth's being
able to support future generations. Jackie Ponder and the Unnatural
Resources Institute certainly have the right idea!"

"Jackie Ponder and her volunteers have given the
citizens and school children of Pitt County an unparalleled example of
conservation packaged in a fun, competetitive, learning experience for
everyone. My family, including my father-in-law from Germany have entered
items in the fair and taken home many a prize."
