FundingFactory Sponsors America Recycles Day Contest to promote Planetpals educational products and school recycling initiatives 

This school year, PlanetPals and FundingFactory are recognizing ‘America Recycles Day,’ observed on November 15, by offering an additional incentive for recycling empty printer cartridges and used cell phones. During this fundraising-through-recycling incentive, FundingFactory will award entrants with a FREE PlanetPals Gift Kit when they register their organization through the PlanetPals website. Registration and participation are completely FREE!

Planetpals, one of FundingFactory’s most successful affiliates for nearly a decade, has joined forces with FundingFactory to provide schools with environmental education and recycling initiatives including contests and incentive programs.

Both Planetpals.com and FundingFactory have a large presence in environmental education and recycling for groups and schools. Educators will be able to take advantage of their promotions to enhance green learning as well as support a their cause.

According to Darcy Tucci, FundingFactory's Business Development Manager "Now, more than ever, FundingFactory is realizing an even greater participation level from schools and educational organizations nationwide. Teaching our youth the importance of recycling is becoming more important to our families, schools and educators. In an effort to save our natural resources and keep our earth clean, printer cartridge and cell phone recycling is making a big impact. These items are used everywhere in our workplaces and homes, and the majority of the population can find these consumables in their daily environment. Many are still learning that in addition to being recyclable, they are also worth cash. For these reasons, FundingFactory is a great fundraising program for almost any group."

FundingFactory teaches the value of recycling by rewarding its participants with needed technology, classroom and recreation equipment or cash in exchange for empty printer cartridges and used cell phones. Used items collected through the program are refilled or refurbished for reuse. This reduces waste sent to landfills, and conserves oil that is used when producing new cartridges.

The Teacher packet will include:

Planetpals Classroom Puzzle, Planetpals Music CD, Planetpals Poster,plus additional Planetpals products . Educators will enjoy teaching about Earth and how to recycle with the help of this Limited time FREE teacher packet. Planetpals inspiring and proactive messages continue to enlighten children of all ages. This contest is open to Groups, Oraganizations, Schools and individual Classrooms.  Companies can sponsor their favorite organization, too.

NOTE: to be eligible participants must sign by Dec 12
