The National Recycling Trust Fund is a special endowment fund of the National Recycling Coalition. The Trust Fund is used to support the work of individuals who are committed to maximizing recycling and waste prevention by providing special grants, awards, scholarships, and internships.
Since 1996, the Trust Fund has awarded about $50,000 in scholarships to more than 30 college students who are studying to become professionals in fields related to recycling and waste prevention. We endeavor each year to make awards to support minority and disadvantaged students studying at colleges and universities near the cities where we hold our Annual Congress & Expo.
