Patrons would bring in their old trophies in hopes they could be reused. For years, the shop created new trophies for nonprofits that did not have the funds to buy new trophies. In 2007, the program went nationwide, collecting and distributing trophies from all over the US. And, due to the overwhelming influx of trophies during the pandemic, the Nationwide Trophy Recycling Program became a 501(c)3 nonprofit in 2021 and is now located at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/6666+Odana+Rd,+Madison,+WI+53719\/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x8807ae5f9aabf1c7:0xa825c98b944abf1?sa=X&amp;ved=1t:242&amp;ictx=111\" target=\"_blank\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/6666+Odana+Rd,+Madison,+WI+53719\/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x8807ae5f9aabf1c7:0xa825c98b944abf1?sa=X&amp;ved=1t:242&amp;ictx=111\">6666 Odana Rd., Madison<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Today, the program is funded by generous trophy donations and subsequent \u201crecycling ticket\u201d sales for each donation (ex: it costs $40 to recycle 25 trophies). Plus, <strong>their storefront is open to the public the first Saturday of each month from 9am &#8211; 1pm<\/strong> to purchase fun trophies yourself.
