I was recently introduced to TerraCycle, an eco-friendly company that "upcycles" would-be trash into products like bags, backpacks, lunch boxes, pencil cases, coolers, and more.  What a great concept!  These products are unique and sure to be a conversation starter.  Recently the TerraCycle Drink Pouch Brigrade Progam reached a huge milestone by saving 50 million drink pouches from being put in landfills and contributing one MILLION dollars to schools and non-profit organizations!

Congratulations to TerraCycle Drink Pouch Brigrade Program they have saved 50 million pouches from being put in landfills and contributed a MILLION dollars to schools and non-profits!! The Capri Sun beverage brand was one of the earliest supporters of TerraCycle, a company that collects would-be trash and turns it into useful items. The collection program, called the Drink Pouch Brigade, takes place mostly in schools, where children choose to deposit used pouches in special receptacles rather than throw them away. In participating schools, each used drink pouch collected and sent to TerraCycle earns two cents, with the funds going toward needed educational programs and resources. Does your school participate in this program, let us know? Together, students and teachers at over 30,000 schools nation wide have collected 50 million drink pouches for the program over the past two years resulting in the 1 million dollars milestone donation! AMAZING!!!

If you follow My SLC Mommy you've noticed that I've been posting about TerraCycle in hopes to get you and your schools involved and help reduce the amount of waste leaving our homes and heading to the local landfill.  Well TerraCycle is celebrating the Drink Pouch Brigade for hitting over 1 Million paid and over 50 million drink pouches saved fromgoing into a landfill.  TerraCycle is celebrating by thanking the top 100 collecting schools with a very special and unique certificate of recognition framed in a limited edition wrapper frame!

Have you heard of TERRACYCLE? If not you need to check them out. They take trash and Terracycle it into really cool items TerraCycle runs national programs called Brigades, each of which is for a specific waste stream (like the Drink Pouch Brigade, or the Cookie Wrapper Brigade). TerraCycle Brigades are national programs where you can earn cash for your trash (all money is paid to schools and non profits) TerraCycle is excited to celebrate the Drink Pouch Brigade hitting the $1 million mark for schools. That means 50 million drink pouches have been redeemed through TerraCycle fund local school programs nationwide.
