CFK Contest Checklist
Decide contest dates.
• Keep your contest to 4 weeks. Contests working towards bonus money cannot exceed 4 weeks.
• Give your parents and kids plenty of notice before starting your contest.
Send in $150 in qualifying items in any calendar month and automatically receive a $25 bonus. (Available
1 time per month, every month, with the potential to earn an extra $300 for the year.)
Fill out the “Cartridges for Kids® Drive” flier, make copies and send them home with participants.
• Hand out a coloring sheet to each of the K-3rd grade participants.
Make an announcement at your organization. Promote the contest in newsletters.
• Try beginning your contest with an assembly or a fun & exciting announcement over the PA system.
• Have classrooms/groups or individuals decorate a box or bag to hold the recyclable items.
• Remember, the more you get the word out, the better your contest will do!
• Give updates of the contest as it proceeds, reminding participants of the upcoming reward.
• Involve local businesses such as pizza parlors, grocery stores, etc; they are often happy to
donate items or sell them at a reduced cost. Rewarding with extra recess time, homework
passes, gift cards and movie passes are also effective.
• Add your recycle event to Facebook and Twitter; pin your photos to Pinterest and post your
collection videos on YouTube. Don’t forget to mention your event and recycling program on
your school/organization website.
Consistently remind your group of the common goal!
Encourage healthy competition by challenging classrooms, teams, clubs, grade levels, etc. to try to be
the group to bring in the most items.
• Feel free to use our “Contest Tally Sheet” to track your progress.
Announce the results immediately!
• Reward your incentive or prize within the following week; immediate gratification is very important.
Remember to keep the contest
light and fun!
