Chimo Elementary in Smiths Falls is competing to win a share of $3,200 through the inaugural Collection Craze, courtesy of Schneiders® Lunchmate® — one of Canada’s largest producers of premium quality food products — and recycling pioneer TerraCycle. Chimo Elementary is competing to collect the most lunch kit waste, including plastic trays, film and content packaging, to be sent to TerraCycle for recycling before May 31. The top 10 collecting schools will win a share of $3,200 in TerraCycle points that are redeemable for cash payment to an organization or school of their choice. During the Collection Craze contest period, participating schools also have the opportunity to win an extra $1,000 by entering a photo submission sweepstakes draw. All photos must be submitted via TerraCycle’s sweepstakes form. The first Collection Craze launched on April 1, specifically for schools throughout Canada. The Schneiders® Lunchmate® Recycling Program recently hit a nationwide milestone of nearly 500,000 units collected and over $10,000 dollars raised for charity.
