Raise money for your school by collecting and recycling deposit-bearing beverage containers
Encorp’s school recycling program will supply your school and your students with all the tools and connections necessary to make recycling beverage containers easy and convenient. Once your school has signed up for the program, it will be given Recycling Hero beverage container collection bins and Recycling Hero reusable bags, and will be given instructions on connecting to a participating redemption centre in your area to make beverage container returns quick and simple. Schools will also be given a variety of other incentives and performance rewards for participating in this program.
Applications for the 2024-2025 school year are open!
Have a representative from your school submit an application to join Encorp’s Recycling Heroes in School Program today. Once you submit an application, you can expect to hear back from Encorp in September 2024.
