PLAINFIELD — The Freedom Elementary School Parent Teacher Organization will host an electronics and TerraCycle recycling event from 1 to 4 p.m. Feb. 23 at the school, 11600 Heritage Meadows Drive.   The Freedom PTO will receive the current rate for aluminum cans and a flat rate for all other items depending on what is brought in. All proceeds will benefit the PTO’s Classroom Technology Purchase fund.   Community members may drop off household electronics.   Community members can also drop off items for TerraCycle, which makes consumer products from pre- and post-consumer materials.   Those items include candy wrappers, cheese wrappers and bags, chip bags, lunch kits, plastic cups, foil drink pouches, toothpaste tubes, toothbrushes and plastic toothbrush packaging, personal care/beauty products and household cleaners.
