capri-sun school TerraCycle kraft foods Target Honest Kids Include USA
Beginning this month, Fairhaven, Diamond Lake and West Oak Middle schools will collect empty Capri Sun and Honest Kids drink pouches from student lunches, classroom parties, etc. Once the district has 500 pouches, it can send them to TerraCycle, a company which will re-purpose the drink pouches into items like backpacks, messenger bags, folders, clip boards and laptop cases, which the company sells on its website www.terracycle.net. The district will receive two-cents for every pouch it provides to TerraCycle.
