Still an Earth Day Opportunity at Old Navy

It's still Earth Month, so why not make a contribution?

Even though Earth Day is over, you can still help the planet by doing something that they already do—shop!

While setting out on spring shopping this April, you can participate in nationwide recycling programs in Geneva by bringing used flip-flops to .

Through May 21, shoppers of Old Navy can deposit their used flip flops in colorful collection bins found inside any Old Navy store. TerraCycle will then recycle the flip-flops into playgrounds which will be donated to communities around the country.

By bringing in these hard-to-recycle products to their local stores, consumers help keep waste out of their community landfills. TerraCycle is an international upcycling and recycling company that encourages consumers to rethink waste and makes it easy to have a positive impact on the environment.

Schools and community groups in your area can also get involved in TerraCycle’s free upcycling fundraisers, which pay 2 cents for every piece of used packaging returned. Interested parties can learn more or sign up today at www.terracycle.net!
