New Charity Approvals

Thank you for participating in TerraCycle’s points program! If you would like to redeem your TerraCycle points as a donation to a charity or a school that we are not already partnered with, you can submit the details for your organization of choice through our website. Before adding a new charity, please search our existing charities to see if your organization is already listed. 

Follow these steps to add your organization: 

• Click “Add new charity” below.
• Please fill out the new charity request form with your organization’s Tax ID number and the address and contact information for the organization you would like to add. 
• Please note, the address and phone number must be for the organization you are fundraising for, not your home address or personal phone number.
• Click “Submit.”
• If your information is filled out incorrectly, your request may be rejected.

If the organization you are submitting is a school, please provide an accurate contact person for the school. If you are submitting a charity, you must provide the Federal Tax ID Number (or EIN). You can find this on the charity’s website, or by searching the organization’s name on the IRS website.

To approve new charities, the TerraCycle team will review the information you have provided. If we need more information, we will ask you to contact the organization to confirm its details. If we are unable to approve your charity, we will notify you. Until your charity is approved, you will not be able to redeem points for it. Once your charity is approved, you will be able to redeem your points for it as a cash donation.
