The American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA) is seeking entries for its 2011 Recycling Awards, which recognize business, community and school paper recycling programs.
The AF&PA says that the award program offers an opportunity for the paper industry to recognize those engaged in successful paper recycling programs, and to share their best practices with a national audience.
Organizations with award-winning programs receive a $2,000 cash prize, a piece of original paper art and are promoted in local and national media outlets. Details regarding award descriptions, criteria, and entry forms are available on the paperrecycles.org website. The deadline for entries is Feb. 10, 2011.
Separate AF&PA Recycling Awards are given for business, community and school (kindergarten - 12th grade) programs.
Visit www.paperrecycles.org for detailed case studies of award-winning programs, along with educational materials, videos, statistics, interactive resources, and a free guide to starting a paper recycling program in your area.
