If you have completed this project and still have more toothpaste tubes and other oral care products to upcycle, be sure to sign up for TerraCycle’s Colgate Oral Care Brigade and send them in! Colgate, the global leader in oral care, has partnered with eco-innovator TerraCycle to help provide a second life for Colgate toothbrushes, toothpaste tubes and their packaging materials by converting waste materials into fun and unique products sold at major retailers! Every time you buy a Colgate product, you and your organization can help divert toothbrushes, empty toothpaste tubes, and packaging from the landfill by sending it to TerraCycle. For each approved item received, two cents will be paid to the non-profit organization or school of your choice. Participation in the Colgate Oral Care Brigade is completely free! There are no sign-up fees and all the shipping is covered by the program. All of the oral care items sent to TerraCycle will be transformed into new cool products.
