During the month of November, the City of Fargo will partner with MinnKota Recycling to promote the “Snacks for Students” Recycling Challenge, formerly known as “Cans to Cartons.”
Through the partnership, MinnKota Recycling will provide a one-cent-per-pound match for all aluminum cans collected in November at the City of Fargo’s recycling sites (listed below). Additionally, the Metro Sports Foundation will donate $500 to the campaign. All funds raised through the campaign will be matched dollar for dollar through Giving Hearts Day.
Proceeds from the campaign will benefit the Fargo Public Schools Foundation’s efforts to provide snacks for students in need.
