May Monthly Community Service: Recycling Challenge

As part of the Sustainable Libraries Initiative, we are “challenging” teens to consciously recycle and earn community service and money at the same time!  This is what you do:

1. You can recycle any bottles or cans that have a deposit on it. 
2. Bring your items to any store that accepts these recycles.  
3. For 20 items you recycle you will earn one hour of community service!  There is a maximum of one hour of community service per person.
4. Email us a picture of the receipt and provide your first and last name, your grade and your SHPL barcode with RECYCLING CHALLENGE in the subject line.  The date on the receipt(s) should be clearly visible and must be in May 2023. 
5. We will email you a community service certificate within 2 weeks.  The money you receive is yours to keep.  
6. Please send emails to youthconnection@shpl.info.  This challenge is for SHPL cardholders in grades 6-12 only. Emails must be received no later than May 31 in order to receive community service.
