24 amazing Kentucky schools competed in the **#MillionCans Recycling Contest**! ♻️🥫

Students, families, and communities came together to recycle aluminum cans and raise money for their schools. Each school was paired with a local scrapyard or metal recycler, making it easy for students to bring cans to school and make a difference.
