"The Made By Milk™ Contest is a one-of-a-kind program designed to help students of all ages tap into creative and artistic skills while building awareness of environmental issues and the importance of repurposing and recycling," said Katie Simmons, marketing manager at Evergreen Packaging. "We're excited to see how students will be inspired by this year's Made by Milk™ theme – inventions – to build carton creations based on their favorite inventions or brainstorm their very own ground-breaking invention to showcase in their entries."

Students in grades K–12 are eligible to compete in the Made By Milk™ contest. To enter, classroom teams collect empty milk or juice cartons to use in their carton creations and write a 200-word essay about what makes their project unique. In addition to the Grand Prize winner ($5,000) and People's Choice award ($2,500), there are awards for creations using less than 300 cartons, and creations using more than 300 cartons. The complete prize structure is below:

  • Grand Prize: $5,000
  • People's Choice: $2,500
  • Elementary Winners – under 300 cartons (3 winners): $1,000 each
  • Elementary Winners – over 300 cartons (3 winners): $1,000 each
  • Middle/High School Winners – under 300 cartons (3 winners): $1,000 each
  • Middle/High School Winners – over 300 cartons (3 winners): $1,000 each

Evergreen Packaging is the largest manufacturer of gable-top cartons in the United States. Since the 2012 inception of the Made By Milk™ contest, Evergreen Packaging has awarded cash prizes to 72 winning schools across the country.
