To bring this program to fruition, SWDD <br />applied for, and was awarded, two monetary grants: a $2,500 grant from Waste Management's Think Green Grant <br />Program and a $5,000 grant from the Carton Council's School Carton Recycling Grant Program. The SWDD staff <br />would like to publically thank both Waste Management and the Carton Council for coming alongside the County <br />and the IRCSD in our efforts to increasing recycling at our schools. <br />Attachments: <br />1.
