Please join the City of Fargo in the "Cans for Cash" challenge!

Through the month of October, Fargo will be competing with like-sized cities across the United States to see which can collect the most aluminum cans. All proceeds from cans collected at "Cans for Cash" events, as well as from cans redeemed at Minnkota recycling redemption centers, will be donated to the Fargo Public School's Got No Milk Program.

How to donate:

Simply take your aluminum cans to either Fargo Minnkota Recycling Center and mention that they are for "Cans for Cash!". You can also print off a coupon for an extra 5 cents per pound to use when you redeem your cans.

Please help by donating your cans in October!

It's for recycling.
