I just stumbled on an awesome company for this week’s Product Spotlight: TerraCycle pays your non-profit organization (including schools) for collected trash items like food wrappers, bottles, drink pouches and yogurt containers. In turn, TerraCycle creates unique and eco-friendly products, including lawn and garden products, cleaning solutions, fire logs, bags and office supplies. It’s free to sign up, so how can you lose? Make money for your organization, participate in responsible recycling and support a company that is making strides in the world of eco-capitalism. Even if you aren’t interested in participating in TerraCycle’s program, check out their blog for some thought-provoking articles on recycling and green business issues.
Thank you for the link … wonderful information over there.

Thanks for passing this on. I’ve passed it to a private school I used to work for. It’s a perfect match.
Glad you liked it. I thought it was a brilliant concept and love that they give back to community non-profits.
oh, this looks great. I’m going to send this along to a few other moms. My ran the recycle program for my daughter’s middle school last year, I’m going to look at doing this as well.
