Hi,

I’m looking for money to educate my community about the importance of regular (residential) recycling. While all the rage is about wind and solar technology, I see little effort being directed to communities such as mine where the practice of placing a loaded recycling bin at the curbside has yet to take hold.

It’d be great to hear from someone who can advise on where to get grant money for this.

Thank you, in advance.

Hi Jenifer,

Do you know of any grants that may be available for the recycling of waste tires, I am interested in Federal or State of New Jersey Grants.

Thanks,

It is difficult to get people on board with recycling. For some, it’s “too much hassle” or they don’t want the responsibility of the recycling program. Some of the grants that Keep America Beautiful affiliates receive are only awarded affiliates of KAB. Not all affiliates though are the same. They offer different programs based upon the community. Our affiliate in Southern Illinois does not need a curbside recycling program due to the city’s program.

I belong to a gold’s gym in Exton, Pa. They do not recycle there. I see tons of plastic drink bottles in the trash everyday. It makes me crazy.When I asked the people there they told me it was too much trouble! We have recycling in Exton for residents so I take mine home. How can I get them to start recycling??

Hi Kristine,
The program is already over for this year. But if you contact your local Keep America Beautiful affiliate, you can check with them to find out if other grants are available!
