Lindsey Rankin, a mother of two and avid recycler, discovered there was a program that would recycle difficult items like tape and pens, and launched the TerraCycle School Recycling Program at Hutchinson Elementary. By working with the school to place a variety of collection bins in the facility, and through education and training of students and teachers, Lindsey’s personal initiative has kept more than 50 pounds of writing utensils, 2,500 ink and toner cartridges and more than 544 baby food pouches out of the landfill.
