How TerraCycle Programs Work

Recycling

Terracycle is another important way you can support LFFAC needs and the environment. TerraCycle is non-profit organization which “up-cycles” hard-to-recycle waste materials into useful products. Members send in these items and once the waste is received the collector is credited with TerraCycle points. TerraCycle points can be redeemed for a cash donation to Longmont Friends of Feral & Abandoned Cats.

LFFAC currently collects five different items (called Brigades) and handles all the shipping. We welcome the community to help collect these items for us to earn money for our organization.

To find out more, please visit TerraCycle website or use the Contact Us feature to start collecting for our organization. Please use keyword: Terracycle.
