TerraCycle Program Expanded

Trash to Treasure partners with the Broward College and TerraCycle  to collect nontraditional items for reuse and recycling.  TerraCycle pays for these materials and Broward College uses the revenue to fund the Michelle Lawless Scholarship which provides tuition for a student majoring in Environmental Science.

This list of materials collected has been expanded!  See the list below.


You can also drop off materials at any Broward College campus financial aid office, student life office or the south campus library.

Trash to Treasure Teams with GoodTwo to Raise Funds
