Fund-Raising Spotlight


Recycling
Help improve the environment and raise funds for your program. We all know that everyone needs to contribute to improving the environment, and you can make a difference while you raise funds. Do some research in your community to see where you can make an impact!

What You Will Need:

  • Items to recycle

  • Organization/recycling facility

  • People to People flyers

Items to Recycle
Decide what items you want to collect, and spread the word that you are recycling to raise funds for your program. You can set a specific date to gather items or collect on a continuing basis. Check around your community for organizations or recycling facilities willing to pay you for your items.

People to People Flyers
Download a copy of your itinerary and program flyer to distribute.
