My mom just found out about a really great company called TerraCycle. They make new products out of recycled materials. But the best part is the way they get the materials. They give money to the charity of our choice when we collect recyclable materials for them!
We just send in the items we’re collecting and they send our school the money. And the postage is free!
I thought this would be a great way to raise more money for our school. And I knew my friends would want to help!
There are a bunch of different things we can collect, but we want to start with something easy. So please vote in the poll below and let us know what you would like to collect!
Hi, I'm Josiah and I'm eight years old. I've been working with my friends to help raise money to build schools in Sudan. Thanks for visiting us, we need your help!

I absolutely LOVE this idea! Would we have to send you guys the stuff you choose to send to Terracycle or is there a way for us to send it on our own and still be able to have it benefit the school? Just wondering. Thanks Cheryl for finding this!!

You can collect and send it in yourself and still have it benefit the school. Once we get things up and running we’ll post the details for you. Thanks so much!
