The Urban Corps of San Diego County operates an Earned Income Recycling Program that provides recycling collection services to businesses, multi-family residences, and sports venues like Petco Park and Qualcomm Stadium. The program collects recyclables and pays schools and community groups for recyclables through its buyback centers. While the program needs funding from CalRecycle, it is profitable and brings in over $1 million in revenue annually through service fees and material sales. The program aims to further grow its customer base and maintain its services.
