School needed for promotion
|
MILFORD — TerraCycle Inc. is looking for
a Milford area school interested in receiving free Bird
Feeders and an entire Ornithology curriculum to help teach
their students about nature and the importance of protecting
wildlife.
In early October a representative from
TerraCycle will be presenting the company’s newest
eco-friendly product, an entry Bird Feeder packaged in a
reused 2-liter soda bottle, at Milford Wal*Mart, For every
three Bird Feeders that are purchased at $4.88 each on that
day, TerraCycle will donate one Feeder to the school along
with the Pennsylvania State Ornithology curriculum to the
school.
TerraCycle developed the Bird Feeder and
this program with hopes of inspiring young children to love
and appreciate wildlife. If younger generations learn to
respect and enjoy wildlife at an early age, they will be more
likely to protect animals and their environment, as they grow
older.
TerraCycle works extensively with schools across
America by running three recycling fundraisers. The first is
the Bottle Brigade, a program in which schools collect used 20
oz soda bottles and TerraCycle donates six cents for every
de-labeled bottle returned to TerraCycle. The newest
collection program is for kid’s drink pouches. TerraCycle pays
schools one or two cents a piece for these non-recyclable
pouches. TerraCycle is now working with Stonyfield Farm to
collect used yogurt containers, donating two or five cents
depending on size. Visit www.terracycle.net/dpb to sign up or
for more information.
If you would
like to sign up a school for the program or want images or
samples of the Bird Feeder please contact Jennifer Wilkie at
416-661-9676.
