Jacqueline Herrera from Midvale, Utah! Thanks again to everyone that entered this year's scholarship competition - the response was overwhelming! Check out Jacqueline's recycling video below:

This year's green scholarship is all about generating awareness of recycling. All currently enrolled high school and college students, as well as students planning to attend college during 2011 are eligible to apply for this award. To win the $2,500 college scholarship simply do the following:

• write something about recycling. It doesn't matter how long or short it is, but be sure it's inspirational!


• post it online someplace, for example on your website, your blog, facebook, twitter, a friend's website, youtube, flickr, etc.


• be sure to include a link to http://www.castleink.com within your post. To win the award, you need to drive as many people as you can to visit your page AND then click-thru on the castleink.com link that you post


• Once you've built your post, page, video, etc be sure to enter your contact information below and include a link/URL to the page where you've posted our link.

We'll be using special web tracking software to measure exactly how many visits you sent to Castle Ink from your post, web page, video, etc. Drive the most visits to Castle Ink, and you win the award! Encourage your friends and family to enter or at least to visit your post.

Our goal is to generate awareness about the importance of recycling, and to encourage people to think about the environment and the impact we are having on it.

All entries must be submitted by 6/30/2011. We'll tally up the visits on 7/1/11 to determine the winner. Winners will be notified by email on or before 7/15/11. The official scholarship rules can be found here.

Not sure if it's for you? Here's a video that details how our money helped last year's winner with her goals.
