Tri-County Waste Reduction Awards Program (WRAP)
Mid-Michigan residents, businesses, governments, public institutions and non-profit organizations all have one thing in common, they produce waste. What is uncommon about this common activity, however, are the extraordinary measures some have taken to reduce the amount of waste they generate and dispose of into landfills. To recognize and support these exemplary behaviors in Mid-Michigan, local recycling coordinators have established this regional awards program.
WRAP Mission Statement
The Waste Reduction Awards Program (WRAP) is sponsored by a committee of local
Waste Reduction professionals. The mission of WRAP is to publicly acknowledge
residents, businesses, governments, educational institutions and non-profit organizations in Ingham, Eaton and Clinton Counties that have exemplary waste reduction and recycling practices and encourage others in the community to increase their efforts to reduce, reuse and recycle.
