School on collection drive for your old toothbrush
TerraCycle recycling Upcycling Include New Zealand #oralcarebrigade Competition St Joseph Catholic School going green
The students of St Josephs's Catholic School in Matamata want your oral care waste.
The school is collecting oral care waste as part of the Colgate Community Recycle Drive competition. The competition is in partnership between Colgate and TerraCycle.
Just by submitting a collection of oral care waste, the school can go into the draw to win one of 20, $1000 cash prizes or one of two recycled park benches, valued at $1500 and made entirely of oral care waste.
TerraCycle recycles and upcycles waste instead of incinerating it or adding to landfill. They also provide "waste" with a new life, creating usable new products out of items that would have been thrown out, such as the park benches made from oral care waste.
It offers free recycling programmes, including the Oral care Recycling Programme, funded by brands, manufacturers, and retailers around the world to help people collect and recycle hard-to-recycle waste.
