Rocky business club mixes recycling with job creation

A student group at Rocky Mountain College is looking to turn discarded glass into sustainable jobs.

The Rocky Mountain College Enactus team, the school’s student-run business club, hopes the project will create jobs for some of the homeless people who use the Hub, the Mental Health Center’s drop-in site in downtown Billings.

The team has already won a $25,000 grant from the Ford Blue Oval Network, part of the Ford Motor Co. Fund, and it is now competing for a $10,000 follow-up grant to fund a social enterprise business that will "upcycle" and repurpose glass.
